HEK-293 (a line of cells) is not flavoring. It's used to help mimic taste-receptor cells in the development of new flavorings. The ones used today are clones from cells taken from an embryo in 1973: https://fullfact.org/online/HEK-293-cells/ https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms5767

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1858901696983732497

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
