Ahh haha i cannot fathom who the fuck would ever want a prefixed amount of spice AND wouldn't prefer a low tech premix spice pack like what currently exists, eg 'taco seasoning'. This 'product' has to be a proof of concept or patenting effort, or like a pump n' dump scheme right? No way someone out there actually thinks there's a market for this
The Juicero was a thing. A fucking Keurig for juice, with proprietary pods.
Never underestimate the stupid bullshit companies will shove out there to part rubes with their money.
I get your point and im just guessing anyway but at least the juicero promised convenience, this seems designed for people already cooking at home.
Thinking on it more, mebbe... could be a monthly sub, including specialized recipes designed for the spice gun and packed with other ingredients like "Blue Apron" or something. Second profit steam selling user data, get bought by Amazon.
Ok i believe you
As much as I hate the AI factor of this product, a monthly prepackeged spice box with recipes was how I learnt to cook. I can see how this product could technically have a place for learner chefs.
Rube Goldberg was right again.
This is just technology for the sake of technology.
