You take a small step in the right direction with that mindset. It can be hell on earth, but it could rather be a ticket out of state-sponsored dependancy. The difference is who is in control.

can't we just wear necklaces of cheerios and call it a day?
seriously, there are some interesting applications regarding the the growth of food cells in these 3D designs.

I'm dehydrating potatoes right now. I should have made fancy shapes rather than slices.

Sad isn't it. At least Tang looked appetizing, and we were getting ourselves into space back then.
By the way, I have just started reading the Tail of the Dragon. I can see I am in for a wild ride! :)

Wow, that is what NASA has been reduced to, making food cubes for Agenda 21. Forget about space!

We have been using 3-D printers to make patterns for castings for years. Making food is something new... the product reminds me of the food cubes from Agenda 21... I think I would rather have oatmeal...

well, after I calmed down, I realized 1) less resources 2) less reliance on animals 3)controlling variables more efficiently

Well yes. By now most everyone knows that gun parts can be made by 3d printers. I would not, however, call it crock when steak dinners can be printed. It's been years since they can print medicine and blood vessels.

what a BS project! the japanese have been eating seaweed for centuries without the need of a 3D printer. what a crock and waste of money. I'll go dust off my old dehydrator and make some interesting shapes out of pineapples and beef-can I be head of the "project"?
now, guns (and any other tool for that matter)-that's useful
