A method of enhancing the flavor of food by exposing the food to acoustic waves from a low frequency sonic transducer immersed in liquid is provided. The liquid may be the food itself and/or the food may be positioned within a range between about ¼ inch and about 20 feet from the liquid-containing container, and is preferably exposed to waves at a frequency ranging between about 1 Hertz to about 1000 Hertz, optimally 600 Hz for approximately one minute to 24 hours, optimally about 30 minutes. The acoustically-treated food is also provided.
