Annelies Hermsen from The Netherlands has worked on numerous food design projects, experimenting with juxtaposing cultures, reinventing readymades, interactive cocktails and bare minimum luxury. She thinks that in the future we will only eat what we need.
It’s an already well-known fact that if you practise sport you need to eat more carbs than others. But why do we people eat so much extra food while we don’t use its energy? Many food producers tell us on the packaging how many calories there are in a food product but they don’t tell us what we need to do to burn the energy it gives us. One candy bar is 270 kcal, for which you’ll need to climb the stairs for 30 minutes to make sure you use this energy before it turns to fat in your body.
