It's not like that.
If only people have 'people food' equivalent to the dog food, it will bring alot of benefits.
Dog food is designed to fulfill all the nutritional need of dogs.
A dog can eat it exclusively without any additional food like rice or meat or anything else.
A dog can eat it exclusively throughout his life.
You can buy dog food from supermarkets and pet shops, and feed it to your dog.
Now, imagine.
Yeah, imagine.
IF ONLY, there is 'people food'. It will solve alot of problems we humans are facing now.
We need to eat. One of the most basic human activities is eating. Everybody is eating in this whole wide world. If we can make this most basic activity more efficient n effective, it will be a great leap for us.
With 'people food' there will be:
1. Improved health.
We need all sorts of nutrition but everybody can't eat with perfect pyramid. When u eat a char-kway-teow for lunch, you are sabotaging ur body. How many times cases like this happen worldwide?
Even when u make a deliberate attempt to eat complete n balanced food, u still lose. It's impractical and impossible to get all the nutrients, and our cooking process destroys a lot of what's already there.
With 'people food' , people's health will get better. Exponentially. It will revolutionize our health, just like the discovery of fire did.
2. Economies of scale.
Imagine u buy a dog food. You feed it to ur dog. That's it. You don't cook, u don't source for ingredients, u don't use fire, u don't use electricity. You don't spend time and effort in preparing the food.
Why?
Because all of that has been done by the manufacturer in their plants.
That's economies of scale.
You only need to go to the supermarket and buy 1 month supply.
That's amazing.
With 6 billion people in this world, everyday eating, can u imagine the amount of saved electricity, saved oil, saved water, saved time, saved effort, saved energies like gas?
There will be a tremendous benefit from the economies of scale.
3. Freed resources.
As a result of economies of scale, we will have freed time, freed electricity, freed water, and so on. Pressure to the environment will be reduced as well.
Also, less resources used for the eating process.
Imagine the time people take to eat. 15-20 mins or more. In 1 day we spend 40-60 minutes to eat. With 'people food' we can use much less time. It can take a form of a pulp, simply gulp it down with minimal chewing. Imagine the freed time people all over the world will have.
All this freed resources like time, money, water, etc, can be better used elsewhere.
In short, making 'people food' has many advantages for humankind: improved health, economies of scale, and freed resources. The technical barriers can be overcome if scientists want to. But first of course there must be an awareness and a desire.
When u look at the dog food, it really is a great concept.
When u copy that concept for humans, it really is a breakthrough.
