Cut up your pizza with a laser for extra fun and flavor

You aren't still using a pizza cutter to slice up your pizza, are you? That is so 20th century. We're living in more exciting times these days, times in which we don't need stupid blades to cut our food. No, now we use lasers. LASERS!

Just take a look at the above video, which shows a pizza being divided into 8 perfectly, precisely equal slices. Sure, it's not the most energy efficient way to slice a pizza, but it's definitely the most impressive. Well, maybe tossing it up in the air and slicing it with a samurai sword like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is more impressive, but this is a method anyone can do. Anyone with a laser, that is. Welcome to the future!

That is rad! Pizza shops could use this as a great way to promote their pizza. Who wouldn't want to see their pizza get sliced up by a beam of light. The marketing practically writes itself. Now all we need is a laser bread slicer. It would toast the bread as it cuts it.

Just imagine the stench of vaporized cheese and dough, but it would be worth it for the perfectly cauterized slices.

After all that and it doesn't even work very well. Look at that last split second when the guy ATTEMPTS to take a slice and has to rip them apart. It's a THIN CRUST pizza and it doesn't even go all the way through!

Risket - it could also be that the cheese gets hot when the laser passes through, and then melts together over the gap when it cools...
