3D printing technology, already the first gadget to give techies and nerds warm hearts, could in the future turn the way we produce, transport and market our food upside down. If we succeed in encoding food and its tastes, smells, textures, etc. with the help of complex algorithms, culinary digitization will continue to advance. And what made a lasting impression at SXSW in 2018 with a concept demonstration called “Sushi Teleportation” could be part of everyday life the day after tomorrow. Open Meals, a Japanese company dedicated to the digitalization of food and the food industry, demonstrated the world’s first “food data transmission” at the time, whereby sushi made by hand in Japan could be eaten a short time later in Austin, Texas, using data transmission and a 3D printer. According to the Open Meals, “Social Food Network Services” are the future of our food.
