Grant Activity:
A taste of tomorrow: fake meat, sauteedspider and lobster lollies?
Purpose:
The world population will reach a staggering 10 billion in 2050 and Agriculture needs to increase food production despite variable climates and reduced resources. Doing so sustainably will require both new technologies and changes to what we eat. This project will explore what these new foods will look like and how they will be made, from the technologically enhanced to the downright bizarre; fake meat, insect flour, lobster lollies, farm–to–plate, disease–free animals, GM crops, super soils, and more! Scientists will pitch their food security solutions in public forums, followed by interactive discussions. In hands–on experiences the public will taste and analyze future foods and experiment to sort 'fake' from the real thing
