    PD.com forums: a disorganized echo-chamber full of concordian, Greyfaced radical left-wing nutjobs who honestly believe they can take down imaginary Nazis by distributing flyers. They are highly-suspicious of all newcomers and hostile to almost everyone, including themselves. The only thing they don't take seriously is Discordianism.

That sounds so nasty.

:?
why? it looks like it's just cnc cupcake icing at the moment....
they mention 'turkey domes' which is a little odd, but i imagine it's not any stranger than lunchmeat...

Because I find both those things nasty, is why. Spray meat? :vom:

I also hate pancakes and the filling of Oreos. I don't expect you to feel the same way, but the idea of 3D printed food sounds barftastic.

i can understand it.  if the lunchmeat it too homogeneous (e.g. bologna) it makes me shy away, too.

but you don't want to miss out on the Future of Food, with glorious processed beef products extruded with nano metamaterial structures allowing for your Subway sandwich to portray 3d imagery of Jared right there on the coldcut, congratulating you on your healthy choices, do you?

No.  I crave it.  Tell me more.

I was futurisming.
but it's coming down the tracks that our parade route is on, i'm telling you.

in the Future of Food, we will be concerned with how many petaflops our morning cereal can crank out, and what the cholesterol content of our smartphone is.

I know.  I wish to hear more.  I wish to hear how much memory storage my omelet will have.  I wish to know if I can download apps into my sandwich, if rainwater will exfoliate me, and if I will be able to order salvation at the drive through.  With an order of fries that plays the latest top o the pops.

I have to know.

Where'd you go?  I want to hear about self-decontaminating baby food.  Electric training pants for the elderly.  Food that has an end-user agreement.  My own personal poor person.  Russian STD vendors.  Edible bullets.

I need DETAILS, man!

the future is scheduled for 15 product generations going Forward.  we can't tell you about what's coming beyond the event horizon of next year's black friday, but you will know what is Coming Soon! to your nearest HyperTrough Foodmart, brought to you by members of the Food Advancement Industry Leaders association.

the recently mentioned spray meats have been combined with the magic of facial moisturizer for a baby smooth complexion that delivers the irresistible flavor of Genuine Prosciutto brand ham.

Snickers will satisfy like never before since our Nutritioneers have included viral deployed orgasms in each bar (sold with one complimentary wet wipe each)

and if you're the health conscious type, we've developed a patented esophageal bypass implant allowing you to pass, undigested any of our wonderful products with a  flip of the subtly mounted throat switch.

I wish to have an edible dashboard, as I am a busy man on the go.  I can bite pieces off when I'm stuck in traffic.  Perhaps if we built molds, and sprayed the meat in?  Or better yet, the snack cake of my choice, selected when I buy my new car.

I'd also like my food to taste more like tobacco smoke, so I can enjoy it after a cigar.

I'm Loving It™!

No need!
(i'm not supposed to tell you this, but you are an exceptionally enthusiastic consumer.  :wink:)
It won't be long before the family vehicle is a thing of the past, as ALL you're local restaurant chains will have individual, mobile units allowing you to enjoy their latest offerings on your way to work, play, and/or hospital!
Simply select from your smart phone which vendor and combo meal you want, and when pickup should arrive, and you will be whisked away to your destination in culinary bliss!

I don't know how this new future will work, logistically, but I know I LIKE it!  And do I really NEED or even WANT to know how it works, what the bumps in the road and the accompanying horrible squishy noises are?  No.  Those are someone else's worry...I pay my taxes, I expect that sort of thing to be taken care of FOR me.

So, yes.  I am proud to drive to work in a Taco Bell, and I am proud to be a delta.

Bring that future on.  I'm hungry!
