5 Gadgets You Probably Won’t Find In Your Kitchen Of The Future
This year’s crop of Electrolux Design Lab entries include several gadgets you have little chance of finding in your kitchen of the future.
Teleport Fridge
Why: Unless you can find a way to live for another 1000 years, a fridge that teleports food to you probably won’t be a part of your kitchen of the future.
Cocoon
Why: Test tube meat…mmmm good!
Wall Oven
Why: The fire department might have a problem with you openly zapping food with a three laser cooking system.
Origin Bubbles
Why: “Self-contained, palmed-size packets, the Origin Bubbles electronically regulate the temperature of food molecules. These molecules are then transformed into tasty, real life dishes at the touch of a button.”
Is this molecule…submarine…thingy even based on actual science?
Vaccine Refrigerator
Why: If you need a magnetically cooled fridge to house over 1000 vaccines and antivenins, chances are the apocalypse has occurred. [Electrolux via Appliancist]
Taste Test is our week-long tribute to the leaps that occur when technology meets cuisine, spanning everything from the historic breakthroughs that made food tastier and safer to the Earl-Grey-friendly replicators we impatiently await in the future.
