Isaac Asimov had a story years ago about a planet of gourmets. Their food was basically fungus (easily grown in sustainable vats). But the trick was to fiddle with chemicals in the laboratory to make the fungus taste delicious in a million ways. IIRC, they had plantary contest for who could create the most delicious meal.

And then some guy shows up with a meal that doesn't taste like anything the judges have seen before. It is beyond delicious. It blows them away. They demand to know how he made food taste so good. He explains: "It's called 'garlic'. I grew it." A judge say, "You grew it? You mean, in the dirt?" He says "yes".

And all the judges begin to vomit.

We're on the way. "Hey, I only eat fake stuff. I can't imagine eating real food. That's so gross."

Good.

That’s more real stuff for us.
