And now for something completely news worthy?
Leave it to those wacky Japanese to build a
robot that thinks humans taste like bacon..
Researchers at NEC System Technologies and Mie University have designed a robot that can taste — an electromechanical sommelier able to identify dozens of different wines, cheeses and hors d'oeuvres..
.. When a reporter's hand was placed against the robot's taste sensor, it was identified as prosciutto. A cameraman was mistaken for bacon.
So does this mean we can finally stop with the "we probably taste just like chicken" jokes?
