PancakeBot pancake printer

[Jon]

Finally a legitimate use for 3D printing, in the medium of pancake. Dubbed the world's FIRST pancake printer. Behold the glory; it's PancakeBot:

PancakeBot has achieved almost 10x its Kickstarter funding goal. I'm not even sure how to process this. Embarrassing? Interesting? Is there even a legitimate use for this, perhaps for restaurants, or children's food? Or as a harbinger of an era when non-pancake foods can be 3D printed to reduce food costs for societies struggling with starvation? Will we one day cure cancer, with scientists saying: "We got the idea from PancakeBot"?

"Finally a legitimate use for 3D printing"

What, you don't think 3D printed drill press vises are legitimate? Yeah, me either.

But I don't think I could eat a pancake that was staring back at me.
