"Tovala utilizes a combination of dry and wet heat cooking technology instead of microwave technology to quickly cook food and get the right overall temperature for each meal. You can cook several different types of foods such as chicken, rice and asparagus in the same unit at the same time, for example, using Tovala’s technique."
"Tovala hooks into your smartphone using an app to keep track of your cooking time. Just scan the barcode on your prepared meal, open up the oven and pop it in then hit a few buttons as per the instructions to heat it up and keep track of it on your cellphone." [^].
Could this replace OriginalGriff's sous vide ?
I shudder to think of the cost of consuming pre-packaged meals from the company frequently. I'm addicted to shopping in the local Thai open market, where I know the lady who sells fish, the lady who sells potatoes, the man who makes 24 hour round trip journeys to a province far in the south to bring back unprocessed palm sugar, the most delicious sugar in the world ... the man and wife who sell fruit, and they know me, to buying fresh-made soy-milk at 6am in the morning from a delightful husband-wife duo in their sixties who are among the happiest people I've ever known; less than US $1 for almost two liters.

It's called "added value", the question people keep failing to ask is: Added value for whom?

Absolutely right.

Cheers.
I haven't seen myself in a while, either. I smashed all the mirrors when I had the metal mask fitted.

So, for something that cooks a meal in 10 to 30 minutes and requires me to put the meal into it, where exactly will I be going for 10 to 30 minutes that I need to track its cooking on my cellphone? Or where might it be going, that I need to "keep track of it?"
Does it come with a plug-in app that enables me to text my spouse to have a conversation when she is sitting across from me at the dinner table?

The question is, why can't the app also do the track keeping stuff as well?

Maybe the app can provide you with conversation cards

Half your luck the only thing I want to buy from our street market (officially Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday but nobody's turned up on Thursday for months now) is loo roll. There is a fruit and veg stall on a Saturday but it sells stuff only in lots too big for me on my ownsome to consume before it rots. After that it's either ridiculously expensive artisan bread and the like or hardware.

This is getting way out of hand. If you're cooking, you should be standing there watching it to make sure something doesn't catch fire.

If so, in what way the oven is smart?

I would guess that, if you buy one it has to be smarter then you.
I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.

Well, having my oven timer "bounced" on my phone could be practical.
I can imagine an "intelligent" oven that can be programmed from a recipe that would turn up or down the heat at certain time, or inject some steam for some recipes.
I'd rather be phishing!

Likewise. We moved in to new apartment a month and half ago and stopped going to supermarket. There are people from nearby village who come every morning with fresh vegetables. Yes the produce is not as shiny as it is in supermarket but somehow look, well, real. This adds one chore to wash away the soil in the leafs and roots but it is worth it. Plus, we feel we are doing something good for these farmers.

And like every other 'innovative' real food company (read anyone and anything but soylent's sludge) that's cropped up on the internet, they only offer family of 4 sized portions. Got a bigger family, well I hope it's 8 or 12 people at your table, smaller and you'd better learn to love left overs. I don't have a problem with cooking 2 meals worth of food for myself; but things I want to eat 4x within a week are few and far between.

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
