Many many years ago, when I was I think about twelve, I read a science fiction story in which only synthetic food was legal; the protagonist of the story had gone to something rather like a speakeasy to get a meal of real food, and got busted. The story made little sense to me at the time, but it stuck with me, though I don't remember the author's name or the title. I think it was probably meant as a satire on drug laws; I doubt anybody writing in the early 60's or before was considering the possibility that it might be a real problem with food. -- though I suddenly realized just now, wasn't that time around when raw milk was becoming illegal? Maybe the author was a dairy farmer, after all. (My family weren't farmers, I wasn't then following farm issues at all.) -- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 5 mostly Fresh-market organic produce, small scale |
