What if it’s a micro-replicator that makes marshmelons on demand? And what if I told you it could also make sausages, carrots, skinny cucumbers and taquitos like they have on those roller grill things at the gas station?
Not so stupid now.
It’ll do M&Ms too, you just have to shake it into your hand.
The Klingons oversell their whole honorable warrior schtick, especially to outsiders. They’re not a monoculture but it’s far less “cool” to be a nerdy scientist in Klingon society than, say, Starfleet, but they’ve still got them. They’re just not celebrated to the same degree. They pay for that by being a bit behind the tech curve, imo.
If you’d rather avoid liquid smoke try using smoked paprika instead. Store bought does the job but if you can find the good stuff at a local farmer’s market, it’s worth it.
