A bite closer: Using 3D food printing to achieve Sustainable Development Goals 2, 3, 9 and 17.

Along with temperature and taste, the shape of texture-modified foods influences the appeal of the food as important elements of food design. The link between the enjoyment of food and nutrition sets the foundation for a good quality of life for older people. 3D food printing, among other food shaping methods, helps establish this link through the creation of nutritious and appealing foods. Applying the targets for SDGs relating to food shaping techniques will involve innovation and collaboration with older people and multiple disciplines.
