Japanese conceptual design studio Open Meals has announced a restaurant concept that will use a customer's saliva, faeces and urine to create 3D-printed sushi tailored to their nutritional needs.
Called Sushi Singularity, the restaurant is due to open in Tokyo in 2020. It will use a customer's biological samples ? sent in advance of the meal ? to evaluate their nutritional requirements.
This data will be used to inform what nutrients are incorporated into the individual's serving of sushi.

"Hyper-personalisation will become common for future foods. Based on DNA, urine and intestinal tests, people will each have individual health IDs," said Open Meals. "This identity is analysed, and nutritional matching is performed to match nourishment needs with biometrics, thus the person is automatically provided with the optical diet," explained the brand.
Once a reservation is booked, the restaurant will send guests a health-test kit to return approximately two weeks prior to the date of the meal.
Working in partnership with two health-technology companies, Open Meals will use the results of these tests to create a unique health ID for each visitor.
