Grammar’s Foods of the Future

In the future, ants, crickets, and other types of bugs will be popular meals. They’re cheap and plentiful—at least 1,900 species of insects are safe for humans to eat. Plus they don’t require much land or water to farm. Bugs are also an excellent source of protein, which helps your/you’re body stay strong and healthy.

What’s that you say? Your/You’re not into the idea of chowing down on beetle burgers and grasshopper chips? Consider this: Two billion people around the world regularly eat bugs as part of their diets.

If your/you’re craving something crunchy and salty, jellyfish probably aren’t what come to mind. But scientists have actually found a way to turn these slimy, rubbery critters into potato-chip-like snacks.

In recent years, jellyfish populations have been exploding, which harms the oceans. In the future, selling jellyfish in the snack food aisle could be a solution.

Your/You’re probably thinking that green bread doesn’t look that appetizing. But in the future, green bread could be a thing—a delicious thing. That’s because algae will be a common ingredient.

Algae are plant-like organisms that grow in water. They’re packed with protein and other nutrients. Many fish eat algae—and so can we!

In the future, your/you’re favorite drinks won’t come in plastic bottles. Instead, drinks will come in pods— that you can eat! In fact, several companies are already making them.

When you pop a pod in your/you’re mouth, the tasteless shell (which is made from seaweed) dissolves, and you get to enjoy the refreshing drink inside. Best of all? No garbage is left behind.
