Synthetic Biology Creates ‘Living Food’

Wow, this is very cool. From Living Food comes this project using synthetic biology to create ‘living food’.

This project explores new culinary experiences through developments in synthetic biology, and finds its lineage in haute cuisine and molecular gastronomy. I designed future dining experience where food behaves like a living creature entertaining us through an empathetic connection – what if food became alive like a fictional character? What if food was able to play with our cutlery and create hyper-sensations in our mouth?
