Skip the grocery store. Are our lives really getting better if we depend on other farmers for our most basic food requirements? In fact, skip agriculture entirely. Let's all become hunter gatherers again and return to our true human nature.
Thought experiment: what do you imagine the diet of the average human will look like 100 years from now? 200? I'd wager that if your answer involves a grocery store, fresh produce, slaughtered livestock, etc. then you're mistaken.
- yellowapple 10y agoThere's a big difference between grocery shopping (where even within one store - let alone multiple stores - you have access to a mind-boggling variety of foods, brands, etc.) and a pre-packaged service like Soylent or Hello Fresh / Blue Apron / whatever else is out there. Not only is the number of available options significantly greater, but the price is significantly lower. I'd wager that if your answer to the future human diet in that timescale relies primarily upon such pre-packaged subscription services, then you're even more mistaken.
