If you’re the artsy-craftsy sort, and you like playing with your food, then have we got a Deal for You…
The lovable, loony folks over at Evil Mad Science manufacture and market a cool food gadget. Only it’s not for your kitchen! It’s called the Egg-Bot. No, it doesn’t turn your henfruit into tiny Terminators. Instead, it’s a three-dimensional printer-plotter! You can use your own colored pens, and the software is free (open sourced).
For a couple hundred bucks you can get one of these kits, and in a few weeks of frustrating trial and error no time at all you can be printing designs and art on eggs. Quail, chicken, duck and more. Or you can draw on fruit. Or baseballs. Most anything rounded that will fit in to the jig, and that’s quite a lot of things, as the tool will accommodate anything up to 4.25 inches (10 cm).
You can even put the recipe for an omelette right on the eggshell, so you won’t have to dig through your recipe file. How’s that for convenient? And it only takes you about five times as long to get it printed as it does to cook it. Approximately.
Imagine what you’ll be able to do for your kids next Easter! You’ll be the hit of the hunt. So be the first on your block to get one, before they’re all sold out (which would be truly eggs-asperating)…
