3D-Printed Selfie Burgers

Hellmann's Food Selfies Used Mayo to 3D Print on Burgers

Hellmann's Summer Hacks campaign takes inspiration from ingenious tricks that people do to improve their daily lives—the 'Burger Selfies' modifies a 3D printer to create food selfies in mayonnaise.

To demonstrate some of the cool things that you can do with numerous types of technology, the stunt involved having a food truck where people could order a burger with their face on it. After taking a picture of someone, the machine pumped out a rather abstract image of people, although it always seemed to catch the most important details like hair, glasses and other accessories. Although having someone's likeness created on a burger is a simple gesture, in addition to linking mayo to some of the hottest technology out there, these food selfie burgers were great at conjuring up smiles.
