Food

The most important thing in life. Make good food. Or else ill come for you.

Mom: Honey, we're going to you aunt and uncle's anniversary celebration

Kids: YIPPIE!!

Drew: Who's cooking?

Mom: Why Emma of course!

Nora: Oh hell nah

Mom: Don't worry we'll buy food on the way

If your cooking is so bad that parents don't force their kids to eat it to be nice, it's time to get a cookbook and watch some videos. I'm a child under 12 and can cook for a party. It's good to know how to cook.

Synthetic Foods

Food products created through chemical or biological processes rather than traditional agriculture—lab-grown meat, fermented proteins, 3D-printed steaks, and powders that contain everything you need and nothing you don't. Synthetic foods promise to feed the world without clearing forests, without slaughtering animals, without depleting soils. They also promise to freak out your grandmother, who will insist that food should come from farms, not factories. The science is real: we can grow meat from cells, ferment proteins from microbes, and formulate complete meals from synthesized nutrients. The challenge is making it taste good, cost less, and overcome the "ick factor" of eating something that never lived. Synthetic foods are the future of eating, assuming the future wants to eat.

Synthetic Foods Example: "He served his family a dinner of synthetic steak—lab-grown, perfect marbling, no animals harmed. It tasted like steak, looked like steak, and cost three times as much as steak. His father said it was good but weird. His mother asked if it was really food. He said it was really molecules, arranged just like cow molecules. They ate it, unsure whether to be impressed or horrified."

Shlug (Food)

The combination of multiple meals cooked in the same pot or pan. Usually consisting of tinned foods like beans, curry, chilli, soups and stews. With a packet of noodles or rice thrown in to make more substantial.

"I can't be bothered cooking. Probably Shlug"
