Muito acessível. No DS9 "Blaze of Glory" ouvimos Eddington reclamando sobre replicadores de alimentos.
EDDINGTON It may look like chicken, but it still tastes like replicated protein molecules to me.
SISKO If you don't want it, don't eat it.
EDDINGTON Remember that Thanksgiving dinner you cooked for the senior staff last year? How many months did it take you to grow all those vegetables in the hydroponic garden? Every ingredient fresh... real. Though you did put too much tarragon in the stuffing.
SISKO I wasn't aware you were a food critic.
EDDINGTON: I wasn't. Until I joined the Maquis and started eating real food. Food that I'd grown with my own hands. Fresh corn. As sweet as a baby's smile. And tomatoes. Do you know how hard it is to grow tomatoes? There's always too much rain... or not enough. It's too hot, it's too cold. I wonder what happened to those tomato plants. Probably burned to the ground along with everything else.
Parece que os replicadores são tão comuns que você teria que se juntar ao Marquês se quiser "comida de verdade".
