What Food Be Like In 2050?

I'm sure many of you, if not most, must have wondered at some point in life what it would be like to step inside a time machine and zip ahead to the future. If movies are to be believed, there are to be flying cars, hobnobbing with creatures from other planets, ultra cool gadgets etc. But for some people like me, food comes first and we wonder what kind of dining would our future generations be exposed to.
I decide to let my imagination loose although I try not to let it wander too far away from the present and its reality. So, I come up with the following possibilities we might have to munch on a few decades down the line. Here's my food list of 2050. Let me know yours!

1-Super Pills
We are all caught up trying to fit more and more into one day. So in 2050, It won't be surprising if a complete meal is packaged into one little pill. Pop it in and not only do you get all the nutrients you need, but you also relish the taste of a meal and your hunger pangs vanish. Great when you are running from one meeting to the next.

2-Hand-Heated Instants
Sure, ready-to-eat meals and two minute noodles suffice for today but by 2050, even boiling water might seem too much of a hassle. Grab a packet of your favourite ‘hand-friendly' dish (trust me, every departmental store would stock these), just let your hands warm it as you head to the dining table and by the time you are seated, it's ready for you to dig into!

3-For the Adventurous
Hope lives on that with the extinction of some food sources, new species of plants and animals ( for the meat lovers) would be discovered. So, if you think the frog legs you gingerly bit into last year were the weirdest food you could ever have, think again. We would be seeing a whole new food menu in the restaurants of 2050.

4-The Great Mash-up
Foodies, rejoice! World's become small enough, thanks to technology, more travel and sticking to strictly Indian, Chinese or Continental cuisine! 2050 would see not just more intermingling of people across cultures, but also combining and creating cuisines panning countries and continents. Tandoori Manchurian Pasta Souffle, anyone?

5-Out of the World
Ok, this might seem out of a sci-fi book, but 2050 just might see meals cooked up from ingredients found on other planets and stars Earth would succeed in exploring. Packed with newly discovered nutrients to get us through the new age, health freaks would approve! A pinch of Orion dust plus half a pump of Kepler air and you are ready to face the day.
