- Works in a similar way to 'pod' coffee machines
- Gadget creates meals in 140 gram portions in recyclable container
An Israeli firm claims to have developed a food 'replicator' that can create almost any dish in 30 seconds.
The Genie, similar in size and appearance to a coffee maker, can produce an unlimited variety of meals using pods that contain natural dehydrated ingredients.

HOW IT WORKS
Similar in size and appearance to a coffee maker, can produce an unlimited variety of meals using pods that contain natural dehydrated ingredients.
At the push of a button on Genie's mobile application, the device begins mixing, shaking and adding any required liquids from tubes attached to the back of the compact machine which bakes or cooks the desired dish at the appropriate temperature.
The all-natural ingredients in the pods are freeze-dried and have a shelf-life of between one and two years.
So whether salty or sweet, an appetizer or a dessert, the device can create the food you crave in 30 seconds.
Developed by Israeli entrepreneurs Ayelet Carasso and Doron Marco from White Innovation company, the device uses a mobile app to operate, and is expected to cost around $1,000 when it goes on sale this year.
'The dish can be anything, it can be a meal like chicken with rice, like couscous with vegetable or an amazing Ramen or even a chocolate soufflé or any other desert that you want,' Carasso explains.
'We're using only natural ingredients, we're not using any preservatives or anything that people add to their meals,' she said.

Carasso and Marco conceived of the patent-registered device and pods, when they struggled to find restaurants that delivered to their office during a late night working session.
They describe the idea as a real life version of Star Trek's 'replicator', a device used to synthesize meals on demand, on board the mythical starship.

This is way cool the purple one is even way cooler lol but it makes me Leary everything I make is grown by me made by my own hands I know what's in it lol
even the secret space program has real replicators just denied from the public
One interesting video to watch is @ http://youtu.be/0NHvVJ4FW3s
Sheldan Nidle stated that The Argathians in inner earth use food replicators
The team say they are already working on expanding the capabilities of the mobile application and expect that in the future, Genie will cater to individual users.
Interesting since another firm is working on producing a food replicator :

Nespresso machine have taken the coffee world by storm - and now Nestle hopes a new food making system could have a similar effect on the way we eat.
The firm is developing a 'food replicator' that bosses describe as 'the next microwave'.
It will deliver meals personalised for each user, with exactly the right balance of nutrients they need for a healthy diet.
HOW IT WORKS
The Nestle machine would work by first testing the person for a variety of nutrients and other health factors - such as diabetes or obesity.
This would results in a 'nutrient profile' for the person, showing exactly what their diet is lacking - for instance, zinc or vitamin D.
Nutrients would be supplied in a powder form, possibly in capsule like the Nespresso system.
A 'replicator' machine could then create food infused with the nutrients, or even a shake or vitamin tablet.
According to Bloomberg, Nestle’s Institute of Health Sciences is developing a system that can test people's health and work out what nutrients they are missing.
Codenamed 'Iron Man', the project will eventually lead to a kitchen machine that can create tailored supplements - or even food.
'Iron Man is an analysis of what’s missing in our diets, and a product, tailored to you, to help make up that difference,' NIHS director Ed Baetge told Bloomeberg.
'In the past, food was just food. We’re going in a new direction.'

Baetge says the final device,expeected in 5-10 years, could resemble the replicator' that synthesized meals on demand in Star Trek.
'Out comes your food at the press of a button,' Baetge said.
'If we do this right, it can be the next microwave in your kitchen.'
The unit is also set to be made available in different colours to suit any kitchen
