With the free Future of Food exhibition, the Science Museum is exploring the ways that science is creating more sustainable ways of producing and consuming food. Over 100 historic and contemporary objects, including 3,500-year-old bread, the first ever Quorn burger, cell-grown salmon and the first beef steak grown outside a cow, will be on display. As well as diving into the way ecological and biotechnological advances will change the future of food, the show will also highlight the people and communities that are creating innovative alternatives to current industrial food systems, such as seed-swapping ceremonies in the Amazon and growing meat from cells at home in Japan.
