Food is not just about eating any more

 I caught a video of some guy at the World Economic Forum in Davos rambling on about a billion people not eating meat — seemingly, that's a good thing — so I naturally wondered what they're eating at Davos. Whatever it is, it's complicated. According to this article on Food Security from WEF it takes a massive amount of effort, computer processing —AI, even — and cookery to get it right. (Also it takes a private jet to get to Davos in the first place.)

For comparison, I checked the White House Mess, a restaurant run by the U.S. Navy in the White House basement, next to the War Situation Room. The sample breakfast menu there looks pretty meaty, although the sausage is low-fat. They don't specify Breakfast Taco's what, but it must be something pretty good.

Also, this delicious note:

Guests of the White House Mess are invited to bring their menus home with them as a souvenir along with a box of presidential M&Ms.

Sustainable M&Ms, I presume. Although…chocolate…
