Do the math of how long it takes for an omelette to cook. Make a machine with a cook surface long enough that scrabbled raw eggs can be inserted on one side, cooked in a continuous fashion and folded at the perfect time to make the perfect never ending omelette. Buy a chicken farm. Let this run for 8 months, then call up Guinness and get that thing certified! Sell fractional ownership in the “World’s Biggest Omelette” with NFTs hosted on the world’s first “Bock-chain”.
