Watch This: Grocery shopping in 2040

Animal-free cultured meat, avocados that ripen on demand and augmented reality contact lenses that activate digital coupons for the items you're eyeing on the shelf -- if it sounds like a scene from a movie, it kind of is.

“I’ve been keeping up with research related to CRISPR , cultured meat and vertical farming for a while now,” he said in an email to UploadVR. “This video was based on my own understanding of how these major advances in biotech and agriculture might impact the future of food.”
