Food Futures: How Design and Technology can Shape our Food System

consuming and producing food. Food designer
Chloé Rutzerveld questions and explores new
food production technologies and translates
multidisciplinary research into future food
scenarios. This book explains her thoughts,
process and work, which is often described as
provocative, cheeky and playful - inspiring and
involving consumers in the discussion about
potential food futures.
Follow the conceptualization of completely
edible, 'mini vegetable gardens' with crispy plants
and mushrooms, that become a full meal after
being printed by a 3D printer. Engage in a quest
for a new eating system in which we digest 100%
of the nutrients we take in (instead of the current
75%) by breeding bacteria that are harvested
into capsules (that also look, taste ánd smell
good). Or get cooking yourself with the recipe for
a healthy, typically Dutch 'stroopwafel' a recipe
derived from her project STROOOP! in which
she dives into the natural sweetness of root
vegetables.
Start exploring, cooking and fantasizing about
what we are going to eat in the future.
