PC has evolved into tyranny against freedom and society as always intended by the elites. They get the freedom and we get the tyranny. The media and its control is the weapon of choice.

Not much will change in the next 20 years.

EVERYTHING is marketing.

Indeed, we generally had no government intervention in the food market over the past twenty years.... I doubt ANYONE predicted in 1998 that twenty years later we'd have a gluten-free craze, runs on kale, Whole Foods, micro-breweries, and pineapple on pizza.

Predictions like this have accuracy rates of about 0. But they're fun.

Like my marketing instructor told us 40 years ago: “Dogs don’t buy dog food, people do. So we don’t market to dogs.”

The thing I notice first on that song - whichever one (Zager or Evans) is the lead singer can actually sing. Don’t see much of that these days.

The left has an extraordinary talent for creating false hypotheticals. Then they claim those hypotheticals are achievable reality, or a reality that will happen if they are not immediately put in charge.

Too bad they didn’t do anything worthwhile after that.

Like “Life in a Northern Town” — lightening in a bottle and the rest of the music from the group was meh to meh minus.

I’m glad I’ll be dead by then.

. Nowadays, most restaurants have become virtual. They still prepare dishes, but they send them to your home. They no longer have tables and chairs for diners to sit at.

Horsehocky!

We have had Inns and Pubs for thousands of years.

A few delusional commie proglibs are not going to change that.

And if anyone make a move on my bbq grill they are a gonner!

Artificial intelligence became completely enmeshed in our lives, and also in our kitchens. Each citizen is assigned a flavor-predictive algorithm, akin to culinary DNA, which logs every memory and taste linked to food from our earliest childhood. Since it perfectly understands our every culinary need, it can even anticipate our moods and instruct our cooking devices to prepare the most appropriate dish. Everything we need is recorded in a single database.

He had found a Nutri-Matic machine which had provided him with a plastic cup filled with a liquid that was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.

The way it functions is very interesting. When the Drink button is pressed it makes an instant but highly detailed examination of the subject's taste buds, a spectroscopic analysis of the subject's metabolism and then sends tiny experimental signals down the neural pathways to the taste centers of the subject's brain to see what is likely to be well received.

However, no one knew quite why it does this because it then invariably delivers a cupful of liquid that is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.

I suggest the author cut back on his alcohol intake and go look at an average supermarket and what average shoppers select.

When this came out a decade ago, it was a WARNING, not an instruction manual.

A government that can control what you eat can control who you have sex with - John Stossel.

And HIV and Hepatitis C can KILL you while costing a fortune to treat - way worse than the risk of diabetes.

This REALLY isn’t about food.

It’s about control.

Controlling our daily lives down to the minute.

Because...

Left-Wing Politics.

They’ll have to massacre most religious people because they will not accept the Mark of the Beast, or whatever their nano robot get’s called.
