Food is mostly made of sugar, complex carbs, fat, and protein. You could probably make a pretty decent printer with a dozen cartridges, and fructose would be a reasonable choice for one of them. The pizza isn’t going to taste right without fructose in the tomato sauce.
Yeah it’s a joke but I’m getting into multi-material printing and printed food is actually a super interesting application.
You ever seen 3d prints from 20 years ago? They were low res goopy slop. Now we’re months away from off-the-shelf 8-toolhead printers. My newest printer uses dithering to blend 4 colors into nearly any color I could want. That tech can be used to blend flavors and textures rather than colors.
It’s a fascinating technology, with an active development base. I see no reason why the relatively near future won’t have actual 3d printed pizzas. With the right bed and nozzle heating, you can even get a nice crispy texture.

Umami cartridge low.
“What the fuck is an umami?”
I look at it all as bullshit.
But really to me it’s how your body responds to something with saliva.
Something salty you salivate, sour you salivate, umami you salivate but how quickly, how much, and how long vary based upon the sensation.
Umami basically means you salivate slowly for a long time which helps your stomach get ready to break down proteins apparently.
“here is your pizza shaped protein mush”

imagine resin printing, but with flavours.
oh my microplastics fuck it tastes too good
