MSNwar Posted December 14, 2002 Posted December 14, 2002 COMPUTERISED scanners and "fuzzy logic" software have been harnessed by food scientists to yield the mathematically perfect pizza. The pizza of the future will have sauce spread evenly and lushly across its base and its mushrooms, ham, sweetcorn and other toppings will be positioned with millimetric accuracy, thanks to the culinary efforts of Sun Da-Wen and Tadhg Brosnan at Ireland's University College Dublin. The breakthrough was derived from digital snapshots of 25 pizzas which were then broken down and transformed into a mathematical formula to define the optimal pizza's base area, spatial ratio between toppings and circularity. The study is reported in next Saturday's New Scientist. It is published in full in a specialist publication, Journal of Food Engineering. The findings should be useful for ensuring quality control in pizza factories, enabling cameras to instantly pick out a pie with sparse toppings or which is skimpy or patchy on sauce.Source:News.com
Crispy Posted December 14, 2002 Posted December 14, 2002 Hmm ... Does the pizza then taste better when it has been made mathematically corect?
Snoop Posted December 14, 2002 Posted December 14, 2002 what a waste of money its almost as bad as the guy from some university working out to the split second how long u need to dunk each type of biscuit in your cup of tea
piaqt Posted December 14, 2002 Posted December 14, 2002 Sampling too much of the local tipple. You sure they're not from MIT?
Drewdatrip Posted December 14, 2002 Posted December 14, 2002 Sounds like a bunch of stoned College students 2 me!"Dood! Lets make ..like the Perfect pizzaa!..it will optimize are munchies...DOood..sweet idea!..then we could use it in math class to get out of real work!..Dood sweetness!hahaha=Drew
LS_Dragons Posted December 16, 2002 Posted December 16, 2002 What a crock anyway. Soon as you freeze the **** thing, all the peperoni fall off to one side (at least all the ones I buy do). I agree with Drew - just some 'scientists' getting out of real class-work!LS
MSNwar Posted December 16, 2002 Author Posted December 16, 2002 DooDz. Pizza is the next best thing to Jack Daniels and Ellen Feiss!Not all in that order of course.Lets make a better pizza w00t
gamehead200 Posted December 16, 2002 Posted December 16, 2002 What's wrong with today's pizzas? Merry Christmas
MSNwar Posted December 16, 2002 Author Posted December 16, 2002 Ellen feiss covered in pizza perhaps?I could live with that
