3D Printers for Food, Seriously!?

Would You Dare To Eat From A Food Printer?

In The United States of America, you would expect that the comical presidential campaign for 2017 is our final act of disgrace. However, since 2014, food has begun to be mass produced in 3-Dminensional printers, solely for convenience and healthier consumption. What?! Let’s take a few more bites of this topic for knowledge’s sake!

These 3-Dimensional printers work by loading ingredients into capsules, which consecutively filter out into layers on the printer’s platform. The goal is for Americans to specifically prepare their meal from scratch. That is, loading these food capsules with healthy ingredients, allowing us to become more conscious of what we digest. Foods can be created in various shapes, sizes, and colors, attracting a high number of interested consumers.

Are there any positive aspects of this 3-Dimensional printer? Foods that contain high nutritional value but are difficult to consume when of older age, can be produced with the printer, allowing consumption to be an easier process. Industries that primarily focus on producing Confectionary for their customers are relying heavily on these printers for precision and personalization of their treats.

What about cooking on a stove? Time consumption is relatively similar, and a person can just as well use natural ingredients to prepare their healthy meals. Does the grating of cheese and the slicing of vegetables really decrease our energy level? I don’t believe so. How about the gel-like substance that our “daily” foods are created by? Our stomachs wouldn’t be able to observe the printing process, rather digest the food made by various gooey substances which are healthy, of course.

It is claimed to be healthier than our accustomed style of cooking. Agree or disagree?

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
