why is that? look up molecular gastronomy

Too bad chocolate isn't really the type of food you would be sucking on :v:

It's one thing to understand what makes an egg, and another to build one on the molecular level. It's the same with why we don't have lab grown steaks that are both fat and muscle yet.

but i was talking about chocolate

Oh, well that's probably doable, I was thinking more in the grand scheme of things, making complex food items and such. My bad.
i thought this printed actual food, when can i print fruit?

The area is wide range and this printing could fall under it. But in not arguing that, brings up an idea i forgot until now, 3d printing scrambled eggs, like partly way cooked and the final touch is through a heated extruder being propelled out of a whipping cream canister. It if could work then you could build humpty dumpty.
I'd imagine this would be good for restaurants and shit
