Using a combination of Organic Tissue Culture Technology and various Lorath food preparation methods, large and small quantities of synthetic foods can be quickly and cheaply produced in an automated Lorath food preparation galley. These automated galleys range in capacity from smaller units able to feed a mere half dozen, to large units capable of rapidly providing food for five thousand people in short order. Automated galley units range from simple free-standing units which operate much like vending machines, to large dispensing windows in which food trays are provided in rapid succession.
