Richard Branson-- Prediction on future food.

Richard Branson, a billionaire business mongol has recently made a prediction on the production of food in the near future.
"I believe that in thirty years or so we will no longer need to kill any animals and that all meat will either be clean or plant-based, taste the same and also be much healthier for everyone" - Richard Branson.

Branson is in the group of a variety of rich and influential investors that envision a very different food system that we unsustainable, and that changes are coming whether we like it or not. This might as well get on board sooner than later. Which is why they're backing companies that promise to tantalize tastes of foods and buds while removing animals from the equation.
Bill Gates is also among rich influences who have recently supported clean-meat company Memphis Meats by giving $17 million. 
Memphis Meats is a string of sustainable food companies that have raised an impressive amount of capital in the past few years. Some people might argue that Richard is making strong proclamations to support and retain his investments.
Some foods people might be eating in the future is not what many might expect.
Bugs may be more abundant in your meal in the near future. Bugs such as crickets, grasshoppers, and mealworms. Bugs are already relevant in many foods that we just don't know of. They actually taste good if prepared well.
Lab grown meat is up and coming like Branson and others are attempting to produce. Scientists at Memphis Meat are looking to achieve healthy synthetic meat. Their process uses stem cells from animal tissue.
Cultured meat would involve 7 to 45 percent lower energy and lower greenhouse gas emissions that normal production today. This won't be in effect for probably another ten to twenty years before we see mass production of synthetic meat.
Farming fish may also be a production of the future. As fishing in the oceans increases and takes away from natural fishing reserves.

There are ethical reason not to eat meat such as cows, goats, and pigs but humans do like flesh, and there's at least one writhing option that might be better is fish.
Over fishing is a major concern but a recent study found that farming fish is a sustainable practice. But fish contain a lot of protein essential to humans. Fish stocks in thirty years might be all from farming.
If people are growing meat in a lab, why not grow fish too. Nasa actually made fish fillets for their astronauts. The process used by the fake meat company maker as well. New wave foods is an other company who is looking into making up synthetic shrimp derived from algae.
