problem: am i the only person who hates when two things that aren’t friends on your plate interact? observation: cafeteria trays are awesome because they prevent non-friendly foods from touching each other and let you determine the exact level of food interaction you’re most comfortable with (instead of having an potentially problematic “unfriendly food interaction zone [hereon referred to as UFIZ]” which i think we can all agree is super undesirable). thesis: the construct of levees, dams and reservoirs allowed for civilization to flourish in places previously thought to be uninhabitable by restricting and introducing the flow of water to certain areas and enabled strategic use of water based on necessity (agriculture, potable water, recreation, etc). maybe our flat, featureless plates are holding us back and preventing us from realizing our true mealtime potential? does plate design hold the key to ending UFIZ’s? can we utilize the same principles employed in controlling our waterways to fix this never ending national nightmare? what if we approached lunch with the same innovative spirit as the architects of the hoover dam? recommendation: all food should be consumed off fun colorful plastic cafeteria trays outfitted with electronic release valves and adjustable barriers between sections. if you have construction or operational questions please refer to the manual. if you think the plastic isn’t classy and want/need to be fancy, spray-paint it gold, see if i care. if you still have an issue with this never speak to me again. i am very passionate about this and this should be printed in a important journal. happy thursday 📸: @samkaplanphoto #zvworks #hydropower
