Would You Dare To Eat From A Food Printer?

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?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
