Pot brownies that actually taste like brownies
Greggroll. Halfway between an egg roll and Gregg.
So egg and Bailey’s in a shoe?
Gregg wrapped in a crispy crust with pork and cabbage?
Holy shit. Somehow you’ve made Gregg even more delicious. Next Greggs on me man!
Grouse egg? How do they compare to Deggs and Qeggs?
A real Milk-steak.
Boiled over hard
Rum ham.
Blackberry lime
Good one. I’d especially like this as a soda.
Blackcurrant grapefruit
Id use it to make foods look one way and taste another. Like program a pizza slice to taste like a peach cobbler milkshake
That immediately reminds me of the age old question: would you eat chocolate that tastes like shit, or shit that tastes like chocolate?
Definitely the latter
What if you knew it was shit, like you watched something defacate it. It still tastes like chocolate. Would you still eat that over a candy bar that you know is definitely factory produced and sanitary, but still tastes like shit?
Is eating chocolate simply not an answer?!
Blergh. If it’s taste only, I’d probably switch at that point, yeah. I wouldn’t be happy about it though!
Which one looks like shit
So is it cake x1000
Lemon-Lime
So just like a citrus fruit intermediate between lemon and lime?
Yes, I call it Leme for short.
The cool thing about fruit is that you can do it. It exists and is called a lemonime.
Oooooh. Good one. I’d like this as a soda.
You smart-ass. Take my upvote…
I would order all the dishes that I no longer eat because animals have to die for them. Replicated would be morally okay with me
Fish. I have yet to have good plant-based fish. Oooh, I could have normal sushi again.
But how does the replicator work? Does it spawn a universe where your cow grows up and is slaughtered and cooked into a burger?
Would that result in a greater cow-to-burger ratio than real life?
From my understanding, it works like a 3D Printer. So no Animal must die!
Steak and mushroom
Jamaican blend coffee, Double strong, double sweet.
If I had a star trek replicator I’d use it to end capitalism and create post scarcity
I can see it now: using the replicator to make more replicators, distributing them freely, and watching monopolies collapse. 🤌🏽
Oh God I want a replicator. Not for novel foods, just so that we could be more of a closed system at home, not always throwing out trash and bringing in stuff, it’s ridiculous. I just want to be able to throw out whatever, into the replicator, and get it rearranged into useful stuff.
My fusion food would be a cinnamon pineapple but really would probably go for the most basic and reliable model, not the one with all the extra features.
Milk chocolate and peach, with a creamy consistency. Then I’d try substituting other fruits, like kiwi, strawberry, cherry, and orange.
The replicator you need for this already exists. Its called a blender.
Not chocolate milk, but good milk chocolate. I’m not going to put a chocolate bar in a blender, and nobody else should try, either.
Baked Alaska / Empanada
If you freeze ice cream deep enough, then wrap it in pastry dough and fry it, you could probably achieve this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fried_ice_cream
I would ask for random combos. That seems like an obvious feature. I assume there would be a Lemmy community where I could post reviews on whatever monstrosities come out. If I feel like actual good food I’d put some restrictions like no mixing savoury and sweet in place.
