“Nondescript protein layer....it’s what’s for dinner.”

Prints like chicken

I would have tried baklava first. Takes a couple hundred layers to make it anyway.

[Wolfie]

Right...3D printer. People have been 3D printing salads for years.

Lol, hey, I hear they can be real yummy when sauteed/dissolved into certain dishes, as a kind of secret ingredient/flavor enhancer. The fishy taste goes away and nothing but goodness remains, or so they say. There might be some truth to it, but I’m not brave enough to try it! I’d have to be shown.

[GraceG]

Yes, but can it do “Tea, Earl Grey, Hot...”

[Mr. K]

Yes, it can oh Chef of the Future!

First Star Trek worthy communications, then Star Trek worthy medical technology, now Star Trek worthy food production. Amazing times.

Coming soon to a kitchen near you.

The Krusty Krab already tried one of those things.

[Secret Agent Man]

if it says “halal” anywhere on it i ain’t eating it.

[Exeter]

Fine, now where’s my phaser?

[Frapster]

I can only dream.

[Mike Darancette]

The ultimate 3-D food creation.
