First there were meals we had to make all by ourselves.

Then 'ready made' meals came along, making life that much easier.

The design takes the form of a set of syringes that deposit food inks line by line, and layer by layer, according to an electronic blueprint.
The blueprint states exactly what materials go where and are drawn up using traditional engineering computer-aided design (CAD) software.
