 Inspired by the [[http://www.foodpairing.com/en/home|flavour pairing]] principle, where ingredients are combined based on their common volatile molecules, we combined banana and parsley in a sweet, sour and savoury dip. The dip is served with an assortment of vegetable crisps chosen for their tastes, shapes and colours. As an example of the food eaten in the Continue scenario, pointing to the inhabitants' never-ending yearning for novelty and intensification of taste. The dip is sprinkled with edible gold powder, adding to its subdued extravagance.  Inspired by the [[http://www.foodpairing.com/en/home|flavour pairing]] principle, where ingredients are combined based on their common volatile molecules, we combined banana and parsley in a sweet, sour and savoury dip.

 In the Continue scenario there is much ruthless borrowing and re-localising world cuisines. Sushi is one such dish, that has been integrated around the globe, using ingredients suited to the palate of the locals. For Limburg, where the Future Fictions exhibition is held, we chose potatoes and asparagus. Asparagus is a vegetable endemic to the region, but it is out of season in October so the asparagus we used was actually imported from Peru, which perfectly suited the scenario.  In the Continue scenario there is much ruthless borrowing and re-localising world cuisines.

 Thanks to industrialised agriculture, corn is currently one of the most dominant plant species in the world. It was therefore an imperative to include on a menu from the Continue Scenario. We paired it with chilly sauce, as it is often done in the globalised "Tex-mex" cuisine. Adding the suspiciously manufactured texture of jello and the "mini melba toast", this dish plays with the cliches of agribusiness, food industry and domestic bliss. Thanks to industrialised agriculture, corn is currently one of the most dominant plant species in the world.

 Similar to the Rainbow Pasta, this tea has a shockingly bright colour. Its name is deceptive: it is not actually green tea, but green coloured lemongrass powder tea. We bought the tea at a market in Siem Reap, Cambodia, where the seller assured us that the powder was genuine without any additives. But without a transparent supply chain, we will never know. The dish illustrates the proliferation of greenwashing in globalised food markets. Similar to the Rainbow Pasta, this tea has a shockingly bright colour.

 The inhabitants of the Discipline Scenario eat strictly seasonally and flavour their food with (home)dried and smoked herbs and spices. Pumpkin is for many of us a symbol of autumn: warm, smooth and sweet, like the early evenings at home in front of a fire (or even better surrounded by heat produced by some renewable type of energy), listening to the rain and wind ranging outside, while we're comfortably protected by our well-insulated windows. Even if the colour of pumpkin suggests warmth, according to the traditions of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayurveda|Ayurveda]] pumpkin is a cooling food. We therefore added some spicy smoked paprika powder to increase the soup's heating capacity.  The inhabitants of the Discipline Scenario eat strictly seasonally and flavour their food with (home)dried and smoked herbs and spices.

 A rich, dark wholegrain bread could be seen as a symbol of wholesome north European food traditions. As such it couldn't be omitted from the Discipline scenario. The revival of sharing sour-dough cultures, bread baking and yoghurt making is celebrated in this seemingly simple, but actually quite elaborate dish. We combined the bread with three vegetarian pastes, one with legumes (chickpeas) and the other two with root vegetables (beetroot and celeriac). The resulting sandwich is a hearty fare that we imagined a Discipline mother would pack for her children's lunch... A rich, dark wholegrain bread could be seen as a symbol of wholesome north European food traditions.

 One of the main reasons behind the collapse of food industry in this scenario is antibiotic resistance. In Collapse Scenatio, the Big Pharma doesn't provide us with weapons to fight bacteria any longer. Instead the old tradition of (wild) fermentation is thriving again, lead by bio-hackers and militant fermenters. As farming above ground isn't an option any longer, people are cultivating mushrooms in squatted bunkers and pickling them in post-apocalyptic fermentation vats. People in the world of collapse use fermentation to encourage the "good" bacteria to grow while keeping the "bad" ones at bay, thereby minimising bacterial infections. We served simple button mushrooms ("champignons" in Belgium) that are easy to cultivate and fermented them for a few days. One of the main reasons behind the collapse of food industry in this scenario is antibiotic resistance.
