Imagine 2: Future Food
September 16, 2020
Looking down at my plate, I cut into the chicken. My knife went right through it and slashed one of the fries in half. I remembered when meat used to have bones in it. When we ate chicken, my brother and I would always snap the wishbone, each trying to get the bigger half. That night, I just chewed on the soggy meat. The food was bland, but it was the best you could get with food prices rising and the economy still recovering.
As I finished the meal, I pulled out the brownie. The chocolate had become sticky, and melted in the microwave. It stuck to my fingers as I pulled it out of the tray. Thankfully, the dinner came with a paper napkin.
When we all had finished, we threw away our plastic plates (we sold the dishwasher long ago), and settled down in front of the T.V. I almost miss the old food, but then again, I'm glad for what we have. I can easily be one of the thousands of Americans who couldn't feed their families anymore.
Discussion:
Alright, so I may have exaggerated just a bit, but haven't we all had this meal at least once in our lives?. Unless we change the we we produce and process our food, we could be living a very unhealthy, expensive, and disgusting future! Although I don't think our food will get this bad in only 10 years, it might in 20 or 30. It's time that we make a stand and change the way we live our lives, because I really hope this never happens!

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
