Biologically Derived 3D-Printed Sushi

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Open Meals' Customized Sushi is Based on Biological Samples

— March 20, 2019 — Lifestyle
Open Meals has embarked on an interesting project that involves the personalization of 3D-printed sushi. Unlike most examples of this in the industry, the Japanese company goes one step further in customization as its products are informed by biological samples from the consumer.

The 3D-printed sushi concept is yet to be realized and Open Meals plans to do so through a yet-to-be-launched restaurant — 'Sushi Singularity.' The eating establishment will operate based on reservation and guests will be sent a health test kit for biological samples — "saliva, urine [and] poop." After a thorough analysis, Open Meals will create personalized 3D-printed sushi that will incorporate nutrients that the dining guests needs.

Open Meals' project is a great example where high-profile customization meets health-focused goals.
Trend Themes
1. Personalized 3d-printed Food - There is an opportunity for businesses to leverage biologically derived samples and 3D printing technology to create personalized food experiences.
2. Health-focused Customization - Businesses can disrupt the food industry by incorporating health test analysis and nutrient customization into their products.
3. Innovative Restaurant Concepts - Entrepreneurs can explore the potential of creating unique dining experiences that combine technology, personalization, and health-focused goals.

2. Health and Wellness - The health and wellness industry can incorporate health test analysis and nutrient customization into their products to provide personalized and targeted solutions.
3. Technology and Hospitality - The technology and hospitality industries can collaborate to create innovative restaurant concepts that combine cutting-edge technology, customization, and health-focused goals.
