How 3D printed food can change the way we look at eating

3D printing is one of the most flexible manufacturing methods we have on the market. Compared to traditional production means like CNC and injection molding, 3D printing is relatively affordable, and flexible, which gives users a level of freedom that was impossible to have in the past decades. Thermoplastics are the most popular material used in 3D printing, but it looks like they might have competition. The amount of freedom 3D printing grants its users garnered the interest of some researchers and inspired them to use these devices for food production. By mimicking FDM 3D printer’s extrusion system and software that is similar to slicers used in 3D printing, making multi-material meals is now a possibility. The technology is still in its infancy, but it’s hard to deny its potential. Jonathan Blutinger of Columbian University think the software element can change how we look at food and inform us about our eating habits and taste preferences. Creating an ecosystem based on eating is the current goal and can create a new concept like smart eating. But 3D printed food is not here to replace traditional cooking but to be an alternative method of eating that can have its own special uses in the future.
