Not much will change in the next 20 years.

EVERYTHING is marketing.

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.

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.

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.

What were we eating like in 1998? I don’t see 2038 being a whole lot different than 2018. We were supposed to live like the Jetsons 40 years ago. That didn’t happen either.

“That’s a nightmare.”

Yes. It reads like one of the opening paragraphs of “The Machine Stops,” a dystopian novel from the early 20th Century.

It is BS.

Thankfully.

I have read this story before. In book written in the 1940's and the 1950's and the 1960's and the 1970's and the 1980's and... well you get the idea.

All that is old is new again.

The only thing that is real about this is the robot harvesters which are already in use.

I learned all of this at Disneyland Anaheim when it opened when I was a child. Practically nothing about the kitchen and food changing came true.

I really hope, if this is even slightly accurate, I’m not around for it.
