Are we going to be able to materialize dinner soon?

  1 lb of food would take about 10 megatons of TNT of energy. I'm not sure you'd want whatever that device is sitting on everyone's kitchen counter.

    I imagine if you had that kind of Star Trek replicator technology it would be more feasible to use existing matter and rearrange it as desired.

      Plus, a starship is already strapped to a huge energy source so the additional risk is probably minimal.
