I'm guessing you usually make or order a pizza like the cavemen used to do it. That's so yesterday. Start-up company Natural Machines is now tempting our tummies with a 3D-printed pizza made using its working prototype Foodini food printer.
Natural Machines shared a four-step photo collage of the pizza being made. It starts with the Foodini piping dough down in a tight spiral. This phase of the process isn't exactly tummy-rumbling due to the less-than-attractive look of the dough. The next step involves a spiral of bright red sauce.
The cheese and oregano are applied by hand. The resulting cooked pizza really does look good enough to grab it off the screen and take a bite. "So much easier than doing it by hand!" the company says.

This demonstration brings me one glorious step closer to a food replicator that lets me say, "Pizza, red sauce, hot," and delivers a piping hot deep dish to my waiting plate.
Here's the Foodini 3D food printer concept.
