Remember when Michael J. Fox told his mom (in “Back to the Future”), “hey mom, you sure know how to hydrate a pizza!”

We may be eating nanofoods very soon.
They say “nanotechnology can boost the nutritional value of normal food ingredients.” Don’t like broccoli? No problem – we’ll manufacture it to taste like chocolate.
One scientists warns that nanofood “could interfere with the DNA, he warns, or it could provoke an immune reaction.” We’ll be eating clones and nanoparticles and forever shaping our genetic heritage, already shifted by recombinant DNA-engineered foods. Then, combining with silicon chips, we will be very different, biologically and chemically, even from our parents.
Current regulation appears to be slight and, the genie is already out of the bottle.
“Nano-foods are already on sale in the US and Australia.”
Make way for the nano-chefs.
