Kitchen robots will obviate the need for processed and industrialized food that has devastating consequences for our health.
The whole food chain will undergo a dramatic change for the better. There will be no point in fast food preparation and unhealthy food when, at a reasonable price (the price of a small car), you will have a robot at home that will perform all the time-consuming tasks. The next nutritional revolution is the robots that will perform all the complex functions of cooking and serving food.
The entry of robots into the home and industrial kitchens will dramatically change nutritional habits.
Eating together is a social need; therefore, restaurants will not disappear; they will undergo a change that will allow quick preparation of food that requires a lot of time input.
- Home robots will make it affordable to prepare quality food anywhere, without the need for fast food preparation that is usually industrialized and processed and highly harmful to our health. High-quality food served by robots on the spot at a competitive price is only a matter of time.
The fast-food (and unhealthy) catering giants have a decade to undergo a dramatic change before advanced robots enter industrial and home kitchens.
- A dramatic perceptual change is needed in every area of fast-food restaurants. The entry of advanced robots into industrial and home kitchens will cause a severe crisis in the industry. (Especially the big chains) The required change is fresh and healthy food based only on natural ingredients. The main difficulty is that a completely different business model and particularly aggressive pricing are needed.
The large fast-food chains are experiencing a decline in revenue from traditional restaurants, so most of them have switched to complementary coffee and pastry products, where profitability is high, and the image of industrialized food has not yet stuck to them.
Sitting in restaurants will not go away! Only the prepared food will gradually disappear.
In the meantime, we should adopt proper eating habits outside the home.
It will minimize potential health damages.
- Eating in restaurants is very popular for business, fun, and family occasions—many excellent restaurants with superb food, high hygiene conditions, and remarkable variety. Many people prefer to eat in restaurants during their lunch break. (Usually, they are familiar with the menu.) Coffee shops with salads and cold dishes are often perceived as having less potential for harm in the long run.
Potential health issues in restaurants.
- The freshness of products and recycled food leftovers (Usually hard to know unless sick after dining.)
- Recycled fats – overheating turns liquid fats into hydrogenated fats; they are toxic and harmful. (Sometimes hard to know; burned fat gets dark, but the light dish does not mean the oil used was reasonable.
- Poor Hygiene conditions. (A good restaurant will have its toilets cleaned regularly.
- Unhealthy: There is a low variety of dishes and animal products without balancing fresh salads and vegetable recipes.
- Lots of calories per meal.
- Soft drinks and alcoholic beverages without a variety of healthier drinks.
- Use of excessive amounts of salt.
Not many restaurants serve organic or vegan food. (It is more expensive but a good investment in one's health.)
The trend of food deliveries gained momentum during the lockdowns of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Ready-to-eat home deliveries are the pinnacle of processed and industrialized food. It is the most harmful food that exists to our health!
- If you are making deliveries of prepared food, you must order from a nearby and well-known restaurant that maintains good hygiene and freshness of the products and does not recycle food and oils. Ordered essential dishes of unprocessed dishes. (such as salads)
Ordering ready-to-eat home deliveries via apps is not recommended!
The new trend is cheap fast food delivered to your home by courier. (Very comfortable but not recommended.)
Pros.
- Conveniently, the hot food comes to your home ready and packed at reasonable prices.
Cons.
- It is a very industrialized food that is designed for rapid preparation.
- The reservation is sometimes via an app, which does not allow the restaurant to be chosen.
- The frying is done with deep oil, often recycled, and creates hydrogenated fat. (Extremely toxic to the body.)
- This is a terrible food for health. If you must eat fast food prep, you better order from the big chains with better quality control.
Tips on how to choose the healthiest dishes in a restaurant and family occasions:
Main dishes:
- Check the menu for essential dishes like baked vegetables or fresh salads, beans, legumes, sprouts, mushrooms, good bread, lovely fruit desserts, and healthy drinks.
- If you are a fish-type lover (less acidic than meat and easier to digest), you should prefer deep-sea fish (less contaminated than other fish). For example, Halibut, Locus, or Salmon (preferably from the north sea, like the Norwegian or Scottish)
- Eating ground meat like hamburgers or sausages is not recommended if you still need meat. Clean meat or steak is better. It better be served with vegetables. (To prevent over-acidity of the intestines.)
- Cow's dairy product dishes are not recommended. (Goat milk products are much better.)
- Beans, legumes, sprouts, and mushrooms are great for starters or main dishes.
- Eating starchy means you prefer rice or sweet potatoes over pasta or French fries. Quinoa or other moist cereals are a better choice if available.
- Adding natural sauces is recommended as they help with the digestive emulsification process.
Deserts and beverages:
- Drink freshly squeezed juice (if available), black coffee, or tea. (Without sugar or a flat teaspoon.)
- Red wine is better than white for wine lovers due to resveratrol ant-oxidants.
- Fruit salad is much better than any cack; nuts and berries are, of course, welcome.
- Yogurt dushes with fruit are better than other sweet desserts if available; goat yogurt is the better choice.
- Processed Ice cream is not recommended; natural yogurt ice cream, made with fresh fruit and no additives or preservatives, is a better option.
Family and friends' occasions
Usually, on family and friends' occasions, there is no problem with the quality and freshness of products or recycled fats.
- Of course, the main recommendations are the same, with friends and family.
- If invited to a late dinner (after 19:30), the dishes one eats should be very light; meat of any kind, especially with high glycemic starches, is not recommended. (Hard to digest)
- Fish and moist starches (like rice) are easier to digest, especially when adding natural oils or fats. (Low quantities.)
Street food can be delicious. But avoiding prepared and processed street food, especially fried dishes, is advisable.
(The oil is often recycled and toxic.)
Food stands - Avoid eating processed and fried food in food stands.
Food stalls exist in many places. It is essential to avoid foods fried in recycled oil, especially. (mostly burnt) and from industrialized foods such as sausages.
- Hotdogs, hamburgers, and all fried food are not recommended. (Processed food with the risk of recycled hydrogenated trans-fats.)
- Bagels, Sandwiches, and cold dishes made of raw, unprocessed vegetables and fruit are safer.
- Drinking in fresh juice stands is recommended; freshly squeezed juice has many health benefits.
Food and beverage industries that fail to internalize the dramatic change that is about to take place will not survive.
We are a step ahead of the nutritional revolution that will enable the public to have quality and healthy homemade food.
Kitchen robots will obviate the need for processed and industrialized food that has devastating consequences for our health. The demand for industrialized and processed food will decrease dramatically, forcing food producers to make far-reaching changes for the benefit of consumers.
