Wierd new technology

Get this its a taste printer. prints tastes for you. made or thought up by a company called TriSenx. You would be able to sample flavours of chocolates and other stuff right from a web page. Uses special code imbedded in webpages to tell the printer to dispense tiny droplets of artificial flavour in stead of ink onto a starch wafer. by next year it will be able to mix the 5 basic tastes to recreate just about any flavour.

I think this is kind of strange. I guess if you want to taste test stuff, but imagine sites that abuse it, like fooling you into tasting disgusting stuff. Imagine what adult sites would do with it.

hmm, this could be used for verry evil purposes :D

That's almost as stupid as those things that release sent based on the webpage you are on. It is neat tech though, the ability to create any taste....meh, I'll stick to original Kraft Dinner. Only 79 cents a box. That a whole meal for a lot less than the Teen Burger Combo from A&W.

Excuse me I'll be in the kitchen....

Taste printer? Does this mean I have to lick paper? With the dust on my printer, I'm not going to try it.

Whoops, misread it.

Anyway, will I need a new printer? Or will this one work fine? If so how thick are the wafers? Will they work on HP Printers?

In other words, give me the website for the product. ;)
