You get access to the Star Trek "replicator." Calories and allergies, (how you feel afterwards) aren't a thing, what do you order?
Sparkle Wednesday | February 15, 2023
Back when we watched appointment TV (that feels like so long ago), David and I used to tune in to Star Trek: The Next Generation every Sunday night. Replicators were a fun innovation regularly featured in many episodes.
For non-Trekkies, a replicator is a machine that creates things, and in the early days of Star Trek Next Gen, replicators were used to synthesize meals instantly. It was pretty cool! I LOVE to cook, but this sounds super convenient on those busy nights.
For today’s Sparkle Wednesday question we’re in a different world. In this world, there’s no such this as gluten intolerance, calories, or belly ache you might have afterward.
You’ve got a replicator in your kitchen; what do you order?
I'm certain that this kind of thought experiment is very similar to what would you do if you won the lottery. But as far as replicators go if we have free energy and we can convert energy to matter then no more hunger no more shortages at least seemingly. I'm sure we'd find ways to make more problems.
Replicator if I could make any food I don't know I just like a variety. That would be the coolest thing you could have anything the way you like it. I would just never have one food item. it would be varied and rich and texture and in taste
Wagyu steak, and an endless supply of salmon nigiri!
