"Deconstructed essence of cuisine"?

I couldn't agree more. Food is one of the most accessible luxuries. The most expensive meals, with fine wine, cost less than most business class tickets (to wherever). On the other hand, a soft cooked egg on a piece of toasted bread after a workout can be just as delicious and costs pennies, available to all.

Next they're going to tell us they've found a way to eliminate that pesky sexual reproduction that's been plaguing us...

I agree so much! Many chefs, when asked what they love most the answer is simple. It's almost always some form of an egg. Great food doesn't have to be expensive or with win or be complex. In fact, very often the best things are simple and fast.

We live in an era where these things are readily available and they're really easy to make and to be delicious thanks to an abundance of spices and endless styles of fats.

I enjoy so much an egg fried in a small amount of butter until the edges are crispy on a piece of rye toast. A slice of tomato with a dash of ground pepper on top. Total cost: 50 cents tops? Total time: 4 minutes? Dishes: A non-stick pan that takes 10 seconds to clean?

It has never been more accessible or easy to not only cook but discover how to cook thanks to global shipping and the Internet than today. And we are left with a slurry of questionable nutrients as the future? OK fine - but I refuse.

Well I accept :) Give me the Matrix's gruel tomorrow and I'm sold for life.

For me, an omelette roulée. Quick, fun to make, doesn't need much cleanup, and infinite versatility.

But what if they introduce the way to make our sexual reproduction activity not causing pregancy? What if they made something you wear over your penis, or a pill that the woman take, so that sexual reproduction activity doesn't comes with all its consequence?

Oh! The horror!

No male pill yet.

Can't trust anyone else with birth control.
