This might be of interest to biohackers and food hackers, and 3D printer hackers: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-24825582 "French physical chemist Herve This says every foodstuff is made up of a basic chemical mixture - and so it's possible to create nutritious dishes from powders, oils and liquids that contain the building-blocks of food, rather than conventional raw ingredients...." The video shows Professor This making up a fresh serving of something that could be cookie dough for Soylent Orange. At the end of the video, with a bit of garnish, it even looks like futuristic sculpture on the plate. No need for farm animals, no need for vegetables, no need for fruit, and fortunately, no need for eating worms. Professor This calls it "Note-By-Note cuisine" but I'd call it "phood." Whoever invents a 3-D printer for using this stuff, like the food dispenser on Star Trek, is going to earn a fortune. "Burger, medium, with a pickle. Tea, Earl Gray, hot." Or at least, "Phood, orange with blue swirls, spicy." -G. _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss
