That was interesting, thanks for posting it! I didn't know that you can print 3D food :shock:
I like how each meal can be tailored to meet a specific requirement for that day.

However, 3D printed food offers an alternative. Meals can be produced near the point of need, customized nutritionally and structurally for each Soldier. Instead of shipping finished meals across the globe, raw ingredients or shelf-stable printing materials could be transported and transformed into tailored meals in the field.
