Taste Your Food Before It Is Cooked With Next Generation Teaser




This is too amazing to not blog about!

"The Teaser is an innovative cookbook concept that has been designed to reduce food waste by allowing the user to taste a recipe before it is cooked. This ultra-portable digital device features a touchscreen display and a printing system that dispense edible flavor strip. The integrated ink-jet print technology features 18 flavored cartridges and dissolving strips that can easily provide the taste of a desired dish by mixing the ingredients. After connecting the touchscreen LCD with the device, browse through different recipes. When a recipe has been chosen, command the device to print a sample which can give the exact taste of the particular recipe. If you feel something is not ok, adjust the ingredients to meet your personal preference. When your desired flavor is achieved, follow the displayed guidelines to cook the food with confidence."

  1. How could this be made safe / natural / simpler? "edible flavor strips" don't sound so wholesome.

  2. There is a restaurant based in Chicago that uses the same concept, they use food juice as ink and potato paper to print onto.
