| |
| The menu is the result of the [[food futures]] scenario building experiment. We created the menu proposal based on [[food scenarios]], then designed the dishes in collaboration between FoAM and Ginny Hunter from [[http://blueskycatering.wix.com/bluesky-catering|Blue Sky Catering]]. The menu was prepared and served by Ginny & Co. |

In the [[food_scenarios_continue|Continue]] scenario, there is a lot of choice of food from around the world, with the taste being re-localised (scottishified, dutchified...), there is a disconnect between what is eaten and the supply chain; flavours are being artificially added, to mask chemically enhanced foods; appearance and branding is sometimes more important than taste; in cities people battle against the homogenisation of food and go in search of authenticity through supper-clubs and pop-up restaurants... | topics for discussion (based on the [[food_scenarios_continue|Continue]] scenario): choice of food from around the world, with the taste being re-localised (scotified, dutchified, etc...). disconnect between what is eaten and the supply chain; artificial flavours, food additives and chemically "enhanced" foods; the importance of appearance and branding. responses to the 'homoginisation' of food |

In the [[food_scenarios_discipline|Disciplined]] scenario the food comes from short supply chains, with the focus on its nutritional value. people appreciate the taste of food, but despise overly aesthetical considerations. Cradle-to-cradle and permaculture function on a small scale; people appreciate wild foods that their habitat has to offer, the foraging is highly regulated, but available. people are swapping seeds on social networks and diligently recycle food and packaging. | topics for discussion (based on the [[food_scenarios_discipline|Disciplined]] scenario): food from short supply chains, with the focus on its nutritional value.

In the [[food_scenarios_collapse|Collapse]] scenario, what we now consider edible is very scarce; waste is turned into food, what was previously considered not edible (or not tasty) is now a delicacy; fermentation is an important way to get rid of bacteria (as antibiotics aren't working any more); hunting and gathering skills are becoming essential for survival; people are balancing between starvation and decadent debauchery; there is an abundance of soy, as meat and dairy industries collapsed, so mock meat and tofu are omnipresent; all parts of animals (including humans) are eaten, and organ market is booming. | topics for discussion (based on the [[food_scenarios_collapse|Collapse]] scenario): what we consider edible changes with scarcity. waste as food. what is considered inedible (or not tasty) and what makes something a delicacy. fermentation, bacteria and antibiotic resistance; hunting and gathering skills; a world with starvation and decadent debauchery; soy production, the meat and dairy industry, mock meat and tofu. "nose to tail" eating, canibalism and the organ market. |

In [[food_scenarios_discipline|Discipline]] scenario meat has become a luxury and organic 'cuisine vegetal' is flourishing. The consumption of most ingredients is constrained and highly regulated. There is an explosion of the certification bureaucracy and meticulous tracking of ingredients, which are augmented and 'smart'. Diets and medicine are highly personalised, as everyone becomes their 'quantified self'. Social control and enforcement are flourishing. | topics for discussion (based on the [[food_scenarios_discipline|Discipline]] scenario): meat production, luxury foods and organic 'cuisine vegetal'. regulation of ingredients and preparation. certification bureaucracy, track and trace. augmented 'smart' production and distribution. personalised diets and medicine. the 'quantified self'.

In the [[food_scenarios_transform|Transform]] scenario food is exciting and innovative: grown in widely spread urban food forests, but also in advanced food science labs and even in space. Maker cultures and DIY movements turned everyone into some kind of tinkerer - including brewers, distillers, chefs and gardeners. Micro supply chains offer ultra-boutique products that delight and surprise even the most critical palates... | topics for discussion (based on the [[food_scenarios_transform|Transform]] scenario): innovation in food. wide spread urban food forests. advanced food science labs. space food (aka 'astrogastro').
