there's no such thing of food scarcity in the future though and that including real food, tbh real food more common than junk food in 3rd world country which often have mass hunger, even right now the world produces enough food if not more.



if you see hunger happening around the world, the main culprit is inefficiency of distribution, since food can rot easily, it's hard to move things around across the world.

i mean, imagine if somehow AI being utilized for agriculture as well, you can imagine food production can increase drastically, it's matter of how human can boost their agricultural production by making things efficient.

Very hyperbole topic indeed. There is no need to keep thinking this way. There is already a situation where you can't eat lobster everyday, but they can, well they wouldn't, why would you eat lobster everyday, makes no sense, but they can afford to, and you can't.

So that means "some" food are not possible for us to buy every single day. Of course it is not limited to lobster, there are stuff like caviar, or even in most nations meat everyday, so we already have that gap. Doesn't mean it is something people riot over, because if we already have this much already, then why would we start rioting in the future? Thankfully, they are trying to figure out cheaper ways to make food, so even the poor can afford it.

But people will hunt down rich ones then If they can't get food you woun't eat in the expensive places If rest of the world eating bugzz, you need armed sercurity guard near by restoraunts.

But food prices are about go bullish parabolic bull run so many can't afford real food only frozen bugz or who knows what some dead cats or rats.

Inflation is currently higher than normal, we know that when inflation is high, people's income decreases or their earnings decrease. As a result, their standard of living costs increase, so don't spread panic among people. Because if there is a recession, the prices of everything will definitely come under control, so it will be possible to afford the standard of living normally, it is best to be patient without being too panicky about this.

What are you even saying, your first statement just put me off track and where did you get this thoughts from. I can understand that we are going through economic downturn and as well inflation is the order for the day clearly disrupting alot and slow pacing growth honestly but it's not an avenue to think in the direction in which you're doing just now. And from your point you're insinuating that the poor that can get their needs will depend on the rich for livelihood but it doesn't make sense, amidst all of this we need to be positive but not by bringing in some unuseful information that won't have a place.

Nope, real food will not be a luxury in the future, but healthy real food is.

I think year by year, the real food I see is no longer healthy because the farmers are focus to make their products looks better and have longer time to keep till it's rotten. So, they use chemicals or something like that even though it would damage the healthiness, the healthy food no longer healthy.

That's why, I prefer to buy a green vegetables with holes and not really green instead of a very green vegetables without any damages.

Do you find it difficult to get luxury food where you live now that has led you to write like this? So far I have never thought like that because where I live now there is always a lot of luxury food and also ordinary food that my tongue has touched so often that I have no idea that food is something that is difficult to get unless the person really has no money and can't make their own food at home. So when you say something like that here, of course some people will think that in your place it is very difficult to find luxury food and if there is, it has been bought up by rich people with lots of money.

Come on, this isn't a movie, we all know things would probably get more difficult but what do you mean by the less privileged hunting the rich? That's very funny if you ask me...Food are always in different classes, there are things that the average and poor people can buy at their level and they are things that Rich people can buy, even In the future it's going to be that way.. there are things that would be seen as a luxury but food is certainly not going to be one of them...in a nutshell, you are just trying to say that the economy is going to keep getting worse, well, there's a chance it might happen.

Anybody that wants to be rich will respect the word because you cannot journey to become something you want people to hunt down because you might be on the list you created, The hunt Op is talking about is not something that would happen in this world, perhaps he didn't no that some of the rich people were poor and they never hunt any rich because of how they were unable to afford for themselves, actually life is not about entitlement is about taking responsibility of yourself and action plus hardworking so that the rich they are talking about will get to were they would become it, what I expected from the Op is to see the rich as a motivation for himself to become the level they are instead of being against their wealth. However we usually see food increases from season to another but consumers are always there to buy so nothing is changing that.

I don't think this will be sufficient due to the scarcity of some products and the disparity in their production from one region to another. One of the most prominent features of capitalism is the emergence of monopolistic tendencies among corporations, and the same tendency is then adopted by countries in what is known as imperialism, which is the conquest of new territories to obtain more resources and tap into new markets. A good example is oil, which has caused numerous conflicts and wars over its sources of production. Unfortunately, technology cannot cope with limited resources and the problems they can cause. Therefore, the conflict over energy sources in general will continue until alternatives are found or the capitalist system is transformed with one that can help establish an economy based on resources rather than monopolies.

I believe that by "real food", you mean healthy food, non-GMO, naturally grown, pesticide-free, and so on. Food prices are rising year after year, it's getting more expensive. A lot of money goes to food every month, it's hard to keep up with some prices.

So yes, quality food was and will be a luxury. And the thing is not everything that is expensive is of high quality, so some questions arise... what do we buy and what do we eat?

[moneystery]

just stop spreading the fud. what you said is just an exaggeration and nothing more than bs. even though inflation is rising globally and maybe some countries will experience a crisis, but it is not to the point where people will chase the rich and make real food seem expensive like it is in the apocalypse.

but it is true that the economy may be more difficult in the next few years. the solution is just to increase income, and then save on expenses, or else you will not be able to afford decent food because of the harsh economy.

Haha I thought people are already eating cats and rats, and bats and who knows what. Speaking of forzen meat there is nothing wrong in eating frozen food as it is a way to keep them preserved for longer period of time but yeah the real taste is in the fresh food.

I don't want to talk only about meet as there can be vegetarian here as well, so it can become a complex debate. I don't know how things are going in other countries, but I have seen people buying meat in USA or UK which is already frozen and tbh how can they be so sure which meet they are eating (that's what I thought most of the time) as here in my place, everything happens in front of us, we know what are we eating haha.

You’re just spitting out things without facts to back them up. How will real food get expensive and frozen foods will be available to afford than the real foods. Aren’t those frozen foods getting through the real foods after passing some operations, how comes they become more cheaper than the actual food itself.

The condition of a country may get worsen as their economy strives, but that does not equate to not having accessible foods for the people. An hungry country will most likely die and not develop again if there are no foods for its citizens to feed on. So I’m not believing a nation will just fall due to expense of foods without proof to back those claims.

[Odohu]

I think OP is being a bit dramatic, we are not at some kind of world ending event. Inflation is higher than normal, the cost of living is high but we are not all going to die. Please stop panicking people, if there is a big recession, it will bring down prices & cause a general reset which might not actually be a bad thing.

We are actually in crisis situation regarding global production and  distribution. There are people spending up to 50% of their income in food which shows there is crises. In addition I feel the coming or GMOs is a big threat to healthy food, since we don't know what the effect will be on the long run. But it's l99kijg there is little we can do to stop the penetration of GMO

[slapper]

The scary part is, you might be more right than you think, but also missing the subtler game. It is about control, not only about food becoming costly. The elites, the so-called "Davos crowd", don't even need to protect their steak with armed guards since most people are too busy debating left against right, bug burgers vs lab meat, instead of who's manipulating the whole supply chain. Food inflation is not some helpless chaos

See land grabs, patent warfare on seeds, agri-tech monopolization, and the secretly elimination of small farmers. They are feeding you bugs since they can, not bugs since they want to. They do not worry about the hungry when they own the story and the food manufacturing. The hungry are theirs

But many already outsource their survival. Nowadays, we neither grow, harvest, nor even know our food. Decades ago, we exchanged convenience for food knowledge. People now worry about eating insects, but most of them cannot even tell you how wheat becomes bread without YouTube. Is it truly about "luxury foo," or have our own reliance already overtaken us?

I think he is right. They can be luxury or expensive later on because if we look at them now, they are expensive as well and this is not their price before. This is due to the effects of the inflation. There are poor that truly chase the rich but some won't do it as it looks so inappropriate. We need job and we apply and the owner of those companies are the rich people but this is another story anymore. Economy seems a whole, so the leaders should also think for the solution. That way, we can get affected less. Decent food seems unnecessary. If the situation doesn't permits, we still can live in a minimalistic way. We can only get used to this.

[Richbased]

I honestly don't know the message you are trying to pass but no matter how bad the economy becomes in future there still will be real food for people to eat, poor people are mostly the ones producing food, even though they work for the rich in their big food factory and I don't think that getting access to food would be luxury unless you are lazy, In my country farmers are seen as the poor people and they sell to the rich so I disagree that food might be luxury for few in near future unless for the lazy ones.

Yes the poor people are the highest producers of foods because the rich can't farm and produce foods which means if food are even to be expensive it will be for those who don't produce foods but for those who produce foods from their farms and factories it won't be a problem for them because they will actually have enough to eat. Good food are quite expensive because of the cost of its production and ingredients used in its preparation but however, food should be made affordable to even the most vulnerable in the society even if it's not that nutritious. If foods are to be expensive, it should be foods that are imported and not the ones that are produced locally.

so today signs of greedflation have begun

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/O5Y3MrATRLs
"guy at the bodega added a dollar to the sandwich so it went from $8.50 to $9.50 yesterday"

funny because tariffs did not change until today. and the guy at the bodega ordered and got ingredients many days ago so was not charged a tariff, but decided to inflate his own sandwiches and blame trump

seems we are going to see alot of greedflation occur

[HONDACD125]

You don't make any sense. It's understandable that inflation in some countries keeps going higher but that doesn't mean people won't have anything to eat in the future because basic things such as wheat and rice and stuff will always be available for people to eat as long as they are earning at least some money. If you are not earning anything, it's obvious that you are going to face problems because you won't be able to buy anything at all and that's a problem.

Those who want to stay safe during tough economic situations in their country will have to work harder than usual and try to find more than one sources of income so that they don't face financial problems if inflation goes higher in the future, and on top of that, people will need to learn to save money when they can instead of overspending when they know they are already not very stable financially.
