Last night I browsed the magazine section at the local book store. Reminiscing childhood, I picked up a recent issue of Popular Science magazine.

OMGosh, there was an article showing how a computer printer was modified to cook bacon. They fed the strips through the rollers. Can you believe it?

I wish I could remember the details of the article to relay them to you here. Maybe someone has a copy of this article at home. Please share if you do.

There was an actual product called Reddi-Bacon that cooks in the toaster. Can you guess why that product failed?

I just read about a new invention called "Pantelligent"
It's the first smart frying pan for people who have no clue how to cook. It is Bluetooth compatible in the computerized handle that transmits to your smartphone step by step reminders when and how to proceed with cooking your food. Supposedly by monitoring the temperature of the food more people will find it easiercto cook from scratch at home instead of eat out or eat highly processed foods.
