You Are What You Eat
"Other circumstances being the same, it may be affirmed that countries are populous according to the quantity of human food which they produce or can acquire, and happy according to the liberality with which this food is divided, or the quantity which a day's labour will purchase." Thomas R. Malthus, Essay on the Principle of Population, 1798. Or the number of molecular combinations they can come up with to create artificial tastes?

I think embalming will soon be obsolete. If we eat chemical preservatives our whole lives, it seems redundant.
good idea John. roger
rather discouraging that we have not progress further than the 1700's. However, we do have John C's cartoon which give me hope for humanity.
Great cartoon John!
Andrew... if we eat chemical preservatives our whole lives... our whole lives will be over before we know it.
Have to agree Lee... the world is in regress not progress. We are less able to feed ourselves nutritionally dense chemical free foods now than we were back in 1700.
But you're right at least we have John to keep us laughing about it. LOL
