I remember some "How it's made" videos where conveyor belts and automation were put to very good use in baking cookies, and such. I take it that this implementation is more artisanal?

edit: The gummies are special because they can potentially glow and deform in a unique way. Interactivity is possibly overstated in this case.

Edible batteries sounds interesting, but I take it the LEDs themselves are not intended for consumption?

we should keep it that way

I'm gonna have to read up more on this one. I have a hard time grasping how this is possible:

Given the main anecdote:

Seems like there's a long way to go here.
