3D打印機拯救世界 打印食物繽紛多樣大綱

3D Food Printer
3D食物打印機

Feel like eating a hamburger? Or would you rather have a pizza? No problem, the 3D food printer will create anything you want, literally at the click of a button.
你想要吃個漢堡包?還是想來份匹薩餅?都沒問題，只需按下按鈕，3D食物打印機就可以做出任何你想要的美味。

Scientists at Cornell University in New York are developing a commercially viable 3D food printer, which uses raw food "inks" that are fed into the printer and once you load the recipe and press the button, voila!
紐約康奈爾大學的科學家們正研發一款可商用的3D食物打印機，它以食物原料作"墨水"。待原料放人打印機內，用戶只要輸入食譜，按下按鈕，瞧，如此簡單，大功告成!

An electronic blueprint states exactly what materials go where and are drawn up using traditional engineering computer-aided design (CAD) software.
科學家擬定的"電子圖紙"詳細說明了食物原料的調配方法，該圖紙是用傳統工程學中的計算機輔助設計(CAD)軟件繪製而成的。

"FabApps would allow you to tweak your food's taste, texture and other properties. Maybe you really love biscuits, but want them extra flaky. You would change the slider and the recipe and the instructions would adjust accordingly," the Daily Mail quoted Dr. Jeffrey lan Lipton as saying.
英國《每日郵報》援引傑弗裏·伊恩·利普頓的話說使用FahApps食物打印機，你可以調整食物的味道、口感和其他特性。或許你很愛吃餅乾，但又希望它們更薄，這時你可以拖動控制餅乾厚度的滑塊，調整食譜，打印食物的指令也就隨之更改了。"

So anything that can be loaded into syringes-liquid cheese,chocolate and cake batter-can be printed out! So far, they have had some success creating cookies, cake and "designer domes" made of turkey meat.
因此，任何可以被裝入灌注器的食物——比如液體奶醋、巧克力和煎餅——都可以被打印出來。迄今爲止，科學家已成功"打印"咄出了餅乾、蛋糕以及火雞肉製作的"特製肉塔"

Homaro Cantu, chef at Chicago's Moto, has "printed sushi using an ink jet printer".
芝加哥Moto餐廳的大廚荷馬洛.坎圖已經"用食物打印機做出了壽司"。

"You can imagine a 3D printer making homemade apple pie without the need for farming the apples, fertilising, transporting, refrigerating, packaging, fabricating, cooking, serving and the need for all of the materials in these processes like cars, trucks, pans, coolers， etc., said Cantu.
坎圖說你可以設想一下，使用3D食物打印機自制蘋果派，而無須種蘋果、施肥、運輸、冷藏、包裝、加工、烹飪、上菜，而且不必使用相應的這些生產過程中會用到的汽車、卡車、平底鍋、冷藏器等工具。"

"3D printing will do for food what e-mail and instant messaging did for communication."
"3D食物打印機可以方便地製作食物，就如同電郵和即時通訊工具可以使人們快捷地交流溝通一樣。"
