A high-tech version of the Gourmet Impressions' food-branding cutter by former MIT Media Lab people, who write on their Food For Thought project page:
"Holidays are always a time to gather around the dining table with family and friends to share good food and stories about times gone by. Now family favorites--whether text or images--can actually appear on the fruit, nuts, and vegetables being served with the help of a laser sign cutter. Since the process takes only about five minutes per edible, the food messages can be extremely timely; I've even printed the day's closing stock prices on crackers, appropriate for Wall Street parties."
