/ck/ - Food & Cooking

How much does this machine cost? I would like to purchase one and have readily made cheeseburgers at a whim.

>>4209976
It's fucking burnt.

1/10

>>4209979

Thousands of dollars probably.

E-mail them and ask.

>what is a toasted bun

Welp, there goes my job

>>4209979

I made this thread back when the article was new.

Would you like another extra big ass fries?

>>4209986
It's black, Trotsky.

That's some futuristic shit right there.

/g/ and /ck/, together. Its adorable.

One more step closer to the Terminator reality.

>Europeans in charge of technology
Shit, are you guys even trying?

I don't see a gay crepes robot.

This will greatly increase our total burger and FREEDOMS yield.

>>4210008

Barely, unless you mean the patty, in which case why are you eating uncooked ground beef?

>>4209992
lmao taking credit on 4chan
you just might be one of the biggest faggots i've seen of late

The Swiss invented a pizza vending machine, and the French have a baguette vending machine.

Not as swanky as an automatic cheeseburger assembler, though.

>>4210022
>the French have a baguette vending machine.
Yeah, I live near one, and the bread's not bad at all.
It's replenished daily from a local bakery.

>>4210019
That bun is pretty fucking black, you're intentionally ignoring it, take another look.Other than that, this machine is pretty neato.

>>4210019
The bread is black. Do I have to circle it on the photo?

That's a fine lookin' burger, I tell ya what.

it's incredible that this hasnt been put to use by the big burger chains a long time ago.
i'd rather have a roboburger than a man-made one (when speaking of bk\mcd burgers). it would probably be quicker, more consistent from time to time and of better quality.

>>4210029
those are poppy seads

>>4210028

This is burnt. The OP burger is toasted. A bit too much for my taste, but still not burnt.

If you can see white bun through the burned parts, that's toasted. Solid black, or toasted halfway up the sides of the bun is burnt.

so more people are going to lose their jobs and the guys up top and going to rake in more money.
fucking great

Quit defending that devil machine who can't even do what a cheap-ass toaster can.

It's really just a matter of time until every McDonald's turns into this. They'll have a few mechanics that work shifts to keep it operational, but even eventually they will be replaced.

I imagine it will be more like Sonic where you park and order your food. You can use a touchscreen or do it from your smart phone by connecting to their WiFi. The food comes out through a pneumatic tube like at the bank, but gentler.

I've worked at McDonald's and you can tell they are already thinking about this . They have caulking guns so you dispense the exact same amount of condiment for every sandwich. The toaster is just a vertical conveyor belt so it's impossible to burn the sandwich save for it malfunctioning. Even the french fry baskets are filled automatically from above. The cashiers don't even count change anymore. It dispenses like a self-checkout machine.

That just means burger flippers can finally get a real job and contribute to society.

Looks like a tomato sandwich with a thin slice of beef on top, on a burnt bun.

2/10, would not eat

>>4210040
well it also means there will be more jobs for people designing, servicing, programming, and cleaning robots.

what the fucking fuck? I'm starting to feel sick

>>4210047
yes, because the only thing keeping them from doing that is all the cushy burger-flipping benefits they get from working at mcdonald's

>>4210037
>If you can see white bun through the burned parts, that's toasted.

I can see white bun through the burned parts on your picture, but I do not think anyone would argue against it being burned.

>>4210054

Frozen fries go into the white container. Basket goes underneath. Push the button and it weighs out a perfect basket of french fries. Carry to the grease and drop them in.

>>4210061
well, i guess it's less wasteful that way. at pizza hut all the fries and wings are portioned manually in store into bags. They're not weighed or anything, you just do it by sight.

>>4209976
>wanting people to handle your food
what's wrong with you people?

Does that burger have fries on it under the tomato? Or are those massive chunks of onion?

5/5 BRETTY GOOD

:DDDDDDD

>>4210077

OP seems to be indicating that he's glad the burgers aren't going to be made by people.

>>4210085
It's too white to be fries, looks more like big fucking onions.

>>4210093

Why would they cut raw onion that thick, the flavor and texture would be awful

>>4210077
You seem to have some reading comprehension problems.

>>4210077
Seconded. I've worked in all kinds of restaurants from fast food to fine dining, and you will find far safer environments and practices in the fast food restaurants. Generally, everyone wears gloves, hairnets or hats, greater division of labor means practically zero cross contamination, better staffed and equipped (believe it or not)...the list goes on and on.

>>4209987
i know this feel

>>4210100
It's a fucking robot, I doubt he has taste.

Although I remember reading something about a robot who could.

>>4210104
>>4210091
Not who you're replying to, but it read like sarcasm to me.

>>4210106

You're silly, I like you.

They could change the robots settings so that it cuts the onion thinner. Making them steak fry sized was a human choice at some point in designing this thing.

>>4210105

I've never seen a chef at a fine dining restaurant shove food into his mouth and then go to the bathroom, all while wearing the gloves that he preps food with.

Never eating at that Chipotle again.

>>4209976
That burger is missing the most important ingredient of all.

>>4210129
Who pays any attention to the kitchen when sitting down at a table?

>>4210137
Cheese?

>>4210143

You've never been in one of those restaurants with the big open kitchen or a glass wall so you can see them cooking?

>>4210146

Love

>>4210150
Nah, cheese is tastier.

>>4210147
Aren't they all that way? And why would I be staring at them?

>>4210151

Nah they're not all that way. And watching the cooks is better than reading the ingredients on the ketchup bottle while you wait for your food after ordering.

>>4210172
Do you eat alone?

>>4210174

Not frequently but it's been known to happen.

This thread needs more burgers
