    3D printer technology is actually very simplistic. The limitations are acquiring the materials and the painfully slow process.

    Uh...

    No link in the OP, but I'm pretty sure it's organic ingredients being loaded into the printer. It's just the assembly that's novel.

    Anyway, they've been using tech like this in avant garde restaurants for years.

    In theory this is hands down bar none the greatest invention of all time, and that’s why I have to hate it. Imagine going out to work for the day and before you run out the door you tell your 3D printer to whip up a nice four-course meal for you to enjoy when you get home. It’s like the Crock Pot on deer antler spray. But therein lies the issue with this product. Nothing in life can be that perfect. There has to be something sneaky about the Foodini and while I may not know exactly what it is, I’m 100% positive its up to no good. I just can’t trust a robot with making my food directly for me. I get they probably make most of my food already, but it’s not specifically for my own consumption. Robots making food for the masses? Totally fine. But once you get a personal Foodini and turn it into your slave is where things start to take a turn for the worst. If this thing starts to develop any sort of self-awareness at all, you’re screwed. You think the Foodini won’t just start to slowly drip some poison into your food? Think again.

    It can't taste any worse than the crap my girl cooks. I swear she could mess up cereal. Pinterest recipes should come with clearly labeled skill levels.
