Most money pledged for a Kickstarter food project

The "Sansaire Sous Vide Circulator" by Scott Heimendinger is the most funded Kickstarter project in the food category. Sous vide is a method that uses precise temperature control during cooking to ensure food is cooked well and not overdone. The Sainsaire product is designed for home cooking and comes at a price of $199 (£120). The initial goal of $100,000 (£64,000) was met on 6 September 2013, with final pledges adding up to $823,003 (£527,000).
