Just waiting for synthetic foods. Science Fiction always likes to paint a picture that such things aren't as good as the "real thing". Sure that might be true in the earlier days, but I suspect that in the end they'll be superior. Though that'll be a long way away yet. Maybe around 2150 :P
Food preparation is one of those "adult" things I still struggle with, leading me to consume a lot of convenience things. Maybe if the world wants to move more towards veganism, we need more (pre-)processed food, just not from animal sources. Veganism is too tied to whole food and slow food movements for it to gain traction. The corporate world still sees it as niche, first-world and hipster enough to charge a premium where it does get involved.
