"He plans to buy a class IV laser, the type normally used in surgery
or welding, to create "inside-out" food. By using the laser to burn
a hole through a piece of meat, steaks will be seared in the centre
and be more rare towards the edges. Bread can also be "baked" in
this way, with crusts in the middle and soft dough outside."

I don't see any advantage to either of those ideas. Well, maybe the
2nd one could be used as a hot dog bun. The condiments would have
to go on the outside.

But the steak? That's just so wrong.
