>> Air fryers are out. Countertop 3D-printing ovens that transform shelf-stable foods into hot dishes are IN! Ok. A hundred thousand years of cooking food over a hot surface/fire is all going to disappear in a generation. Microwaves were new, but we did not abandon conventional ovens and BBQs. Maybe cooking things over heat will disappear, but I would still place my bets on us cooking in basically the same manner as before. >> plankton from the deepest point in the Pacific Ocean, where we have yet to explore the possibilities of food. There is literally no food down there. It is a remarkably low-energy environment. What is alive there survives on the dead matter falling from above. For the energy it would take to haul fish from such depths we could run greenhouses in space.
