Food synthesizer

FoodForge Cuisine Synthesizer (or Food Synthesizer for short) is an appliance object in The Sims 3: Into the Future. Using it builds the advanced technology skill. 
It allows Sims to produce any type of chosen meal without preparation or cooking skill, as well as get rid of full and empty dishes. It also functions as a trash can. If the sim does not have high enough advanced technology skill, the machine may sometimes squirt over the Sim and create the chosen meal in bad quality.
Sims with high levels of advanced technology skill can program it to include new recipes, as well as improve the quality level of all meals. However, these functions are only available in lots your Sims own, with the exception of the base camp. 
Because of its multi-inclusive functions, it renders most of the kitchen appliances obsolete,Vampires do not autonomously synthesize a plasma juice pack (but can be directed to do so), therefore it would be best to supplement households with said member with a normal refrigerator as well. except arguably coffeemakers.
Food made with a food synthesizer will not spoil, and can be left in room temperature for weeks or longer.
If the relevant Store products are installed, the food synthesizer can also create meals that would otherwise be exclusive to Baker's Station, Wood Fire Oven, and Chun Co. Teppanyaki Grill, including the ability to create single servings of meals that would otherwise only be available as large servings.
However, it cannot create ambrosia, full-size pizzas, or meals that require a microwave, nor can it convert regular meals into toddler food (which requires a food processor).
While seemingly a very rare occurence, the food synthesizer can be set on fire if a Sim gets the "Too Spicy" moodlet from chili meals eaten right in front of it.
==Cafeteria==
If the food synthesizer is present in any type of community lot, it will spawn a waiter or waitress (or even more; depending on the number of seating) that serve food to seated Sims. 
By clicking on a waiter or dining table, the player can make an order. This will seat a Sim and have them wait for their food. The player can choose between either a regular meal (with the type that reflects the time of the day), quick meal or dessert. Due to an oversight by developers, the selection of free quick meals from the waiter's interaction menu will display their price tags.Using the "Order Favorite Meal" does charge the Sim, while selecting from the other order interactions do not.
Species with non-standard favorite meals (O+ for vampires, kelp for mermaids), will have the option "Order Favorite Meal (§8)" show up (It will always be §8 in those cases), but the interaction will automatically be cancelled as soon as the Sim has sat down at a table and waved to a waiter.
