Davos, Switzerland - Experts in food science and biology gave a stirring speech at this year’s meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF), where they suggested the new cuisine for the peasant class would either be bugs grown in labs or bugs found on the ground.
“I vote lab-grown bugs,” said Bill and Melinda Gates in unison. “Bill and Melinda Gates of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, I’m sure you mean well, but the peasantry will never go for lab-grown bugs,” said John Kerry, the US climate change envoy. “Everyone knows that the commoners will always prefer organic, farm-to-table bugs that are found on the ground in a Walmart parking lot.”
At the conclusion of the presentation, lab-grown bugs had won decisively and the representatives from Whole Foods made themselves busy by replacing all organic beef in their stores with lab-grown bugs, or “Beyond Beyond Meat”, as they put it.
