3D Printed Meat Is Coming to a Supermarket Near You

Posted on by

3D printed meat: just the thought alone probably has your mouth watering right now. I know mine is, but I’ve eaten nothing but saltines for the better part of a week because I’m too lazy to go to the grocery store and too poor to order delivery. But enough about my stomach eating itself; food company Redefine Meat is hard at work making 3D-printed meat a reality.

Redefine Meat’s New-Meat product is supposed to be delicious, good for the environment, and kinder to animals. The last two are almost certainly the case considering it’s lab-grown and 3D printed, leaving only its deliciousness in question. Send some my way for a taste test! Just let me know when it’s supposed to arrive, so it doesn’t sit on my front porch for a week and start to rot (I always enter the house through the garage).

The first video, compared to the second, shows a drastic improvement in the technology already. If companies can nail the taste and price, I’m really curious to see how all this lab-grown pans out. Hopefully medium-rare, with a nice sear and topped with herb butter!

Realistic Grilled Steak Dinner Candles Look Good Enough to Eat

Posted on by

Because Japan is famous for developing products long before we recognize the need for them, this is the steak candle from century-old Japanese candle manufacturer Kameyama. It looks like a steak dinner and smells like a steak dinner, leading me to question whether or not it really is a steak dinner. Obviously, I’m afraid I have no choice but to convince a friend to take a bite and find out.

The steak candle set, available from the Japan Trend Shop for $25, includes steak, potato, beans, and carrot candles, which are all “charcoal-grilled meat” scented. Are they the perfect candles for lighting in the bedroom to set the mood for an evening of romance? Probably not, but that won’t stop me from trying.

The steak candle has a burn time of about an hour and the vegetables about five minutes apiece. That’s not a very long time, but still significantly longer than it would take me to enjoy an actual steak dinner, with my personal best being before the waiter could even set the plate down on the table.

Guy Cooks a Steak Using a Flying Drone

Posted on by

This guy knows how to cook a steak on the grill like a real man. Let the drone do all of the work. That’s how you do it. Or, that’s how you don’t do it. I’ll have my steak well-drone please.

Want to know how you cook steak with a drone? First, this guy attaches the steak to the quadcopter using a wire, then flies it over, drags it through the gravel on the ground for extra flavor then sets it on the grill to cook. The cow has landed. I repeat, the cow has landed!

He even uses the drone to flip the steak over. This sure is a complicated way to make a steak, but what the hell. You never know when you might need to land a slab of raw meat on a hot surface with a drone. Do you have that skill on your resume? This guy does.

Rib Eye Steak Grilled with 2,000-degree Molten Lava

Posted on by

“Cooking With Lava” is the name of this video by Bompas & Parr studio. And that is just what they do. This video features professor Robert Wysocki of Syracuse University in New York State using the 2,000-degree heat of molten lava to cook a 10-ounce rib eye. Put your charcoal away with your dress, son. This is how a real man grills!

The lava flow begins its slow descent down a trough of dry ice, then the meat is placed on the grill and begins sizzling right away. It’s friggin’ lava. Did you think it would take a half hour?

I’ll have mine medium burnt to ash, please and instead of eating it, I’ll just burn my face off now and save some time. Crazy. Thanksgiving dinner would be done in like two minutes instead of six hours.

We need to harness the power of our volcanoes at once!
