The Book (food for thought)

Does this mean that the Internet fridge will finally take off? Probably not because there is no real customer need and the computer usually gets old and out-of-date before the fridge, but some way of alerting people to what food you’ve got in your house, what you can make with it and ordering what you need but don’t have could be a winner.In Japan the Mitsubishi Electric Corporation sells a kitchen appliance with the snappy name of the Umasa Vitamin Zoryo Hikari Power Yasai Shitsu fridge. It’s the first fridge in the world that increases the vitamin C content of the food contained within through a process of photosynthesis. It’s a good example of how technology will be used to increase the healthiness of what we eat.
