Ubhubhani wezinambuzane… iofisi yam izele zizo. Ndiye ndazintywilisela kwiisampulu zeemveliso ezahlukeneyo ezenziwe ngeqakamba: iicrackers zeqakamba, iitshiphusi ze-tortilla, iiprotheyini, nkqu nomgubo wenjongo zonke, ekuthiwa unencasa ye-nutty egqibeleleyo kwisonka sebhanana. Ndinomdla kwaye ndiyamangalisa, kodwa ngaphezu kwakho konke ndifuna ukwazi oku: Ngaba izinambuzane ekutyeni ziyinto nje edlulayo kwihlabathi laseNtshona, i-nostalgic nod nostalgic kubantu bamandulo ababedla izinambuzane kangangeenkulungwane? Okanye ngaba inokuba yinxalenye yenkalakahla yaseMelika njengoko yayinjalo isushi ngeminyaka yee-1970? Ndagqiba kwelokuba ndiphande.
Zingena njani izinambuzane ekutyeni kwethu? Nangona izinambuzane ezidliwayo zixhaphakile e-Asia, e-Afrika, naseLatin America, bekungekho kude kube nguMeyi wokugqibela ukuba ihlabathi laseNtshona (kwaye, ngokuqinisekileyo, ukubulawa kweziqalo) laqala ukubathatha ngokungathí sina. Kwandula ke, uMbutho Wokutya Nezolimo weZizwe Ezimanyeneyo wakhupha ingxelo ethi ngowama-2050, ngenxa yokwanda kwabemi, ihlabathi kuya kufuneka londle abantu abangakumbi abazibhiliyoni ezi-2. Esinye isisombululo: ukutya izinambuzane ezineproteni eninzi, nto leyo enokuba nempembelelo enkulu kwimekobume ukuba zinokuba yinxalenye yokutya okusisiseko kwehlabathi. Iikhilikithi zikhupha iigesi ze-greenhouse eziphindwe ka-100 ngaphantsi kweenkomo, kwaye kuthatha i-1 galoni yamanzi kunye neeponti ezi-2 zokutya ukunyusa iponti yeqakamba, xa kuthelekiswa ne-2,000 yeegaloni zamanzi kunye ne-25 yeponti yokutya ukunyusa iponti yenkomo.
Ukutya okutshiphu kupholile. Kodwa uzenza njani izinambuzane zibe zezona ziqhelekileyo eMelika, apho kunokwenzeka ukuba sizitshize ngetyhefu kunokuqhotsa kwipani yokuqhotsa? Kulapho iziqalo zokuyila zingena khona. Ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka, umfazi ogama linguMegan Miller waseka iBitty Foods eSan Francisco, ethengisa iikuki ezingenazinkozo ezenziwe ngomgubo weqakamba kwiincasa eziquka ijinja eorenji kunye necardamom yetshokolethi. Uthi iikuki "ziyimveliso yesango," oku kuthetha ukuba ifomu yabo emnandi inokunceda ukufihla into yokuba utya izinambuzane (kwaye isango liyasebenza, kuba bendizitya oko ndaqala ukubhala le post, icookie yam yesithathu. ). “Undoqo kukuguqula iiqakamba zibe yinto eqhelekileyo,” utshilo uMiller. “Ngoko siyazicoca-zosa kwaye sizisile zibe ngumgubo onokuwongeza kuyo nantoni na.”
Ukuqhelana kubonakala ngathi ligama eliphambili. USusie Badaracco, umongameli wenkampani eqikelela ukutya okumila kumbi iCulinary Tides, uqikelela ukuba ishishini lezinambuzane ezityiwayo liya kukhula ngokuqinisekileyo, kodwa okona kukhula kuya kuvela kwimveliso yokutya kwezinambuzane ezinjengeeprotein, iitshiphusi, amaqebengwana kunye nokutya okuziinkozo. amalungu omzimba wesinambuzane akabonakali. Ixesha lilungile, i-Badaracco yongezelela, njengoko abathengi base-US beba nomdla ngakumbi ekuzinzeni kunye nesondlo, ngakumbi xa kuziwa kwi-high-protein foods. Ubonakala enyanisile. Kungekudala emva kokuba ndithethe ne-Badalacco, i-JetBlue yazisa ukuba iya kunika iiprotheyini ze-Exo ezenziwe kumgubo wekhilikithi kubagibeli abahamba ngeenqwelo-moya ukusuka e-JFK ukuya e-Los Angeles ukususela ngo-2015. Emva koko, ukusetyenziswa kwenambuzane yonke ayinayo iingcambu zembali e-United States, ngoko uye indlela ende phambi kokuba ingene nzulu kwiindawo zokuthengisa kunye nezokutyela.
Ekuphela kweendawo esinokufumana kuzo izinti zeqakamba ziimarike ezisexesheni nakwi-Whole Foods. Ngaba oko kuya kutshintsha? Iintengiso zeBitty Foods ziyenyuka, ziphindaphindeka kathathu kwezi veki zintathu zidlulileyo emva kokuphononongwa kwerave. Kwaye, umpheki osaziwayo uTyler Florence ujoyine inkampani njengomlawuli wezokutya ukuze ancede ukuphuhlisa "uluhlu lweemveliso eziya kuthengiswa ngqo kwilizwe liphela kwisithuba sonyaka," utshilo uMiller. Akakwazanga ukuphawula ngeemveliso ezithile, kodwa wathi izinto ezifana nesonka kunye nepasta zinokubakho. “Yintoni eyona nto iyiyo ibhombu ye-carb inokujikwa ibe yinto enesondlo ngokwenene,” utshilo. Kubantu abaxhalabele impilo, iincukuthu zilungile kuwe: Iqakamba ezomileyo zineprotein emalunga nama-60 ukuya kuma-70 epesenti (indebe yekomityi, ilingana nenyama yenkomo), kwaye zikwane-omega-3 fatty acids, iivithamini B, i-iron kunye necalcium.
Konke oku kukhula kunokubangela lo mbuzo: Zivela phi kanye kanye ezi zinambuzane? Akukho baboneleli baneleyo ukuhlangabezana nemfuno ngoku - malunga neefama ezintlanu kuphela eNyakatho Melika ezivelisa izinambuzane zodidi lokutya - oku kuthetha ukuba iimveliso ezisekelwe kwizinambuzane ziya kuhlala zibiza. Ukufumana ireferensi, ingxowa yokubhaka umgubo kwi-Bitty Foods ixabisa i-20 yeedola. Kodwa umdla wokulima izinambuzane uyakhula, kwaye ngenxa yeenkampani ze-agtech ezifana neeFama eziNcinci, abantu ngoku banenkxaso yokuqalisa. "Ndifumana ii-imeyile phantse yonke imihla kubantu abafuna ukungena ekulimeni," utshilo uDaniel Imrie-Situnayake, i-CEO yeTiny Farms, inkampani yakhe eyenza umzekelo wefama yanamhlanje, esebenzayo yezinambuzane. Injongo: ukwakha inethiwekhi yeefama ezinjalo, ukuthenga izinambuzane, ukuqinisekisa umgangatho wazo, kwaye emva koko uzithengise kubalimi. “Ngenkqubo esiyiphuhlisayo, imveliso iza kunyuka namaxabiso ehle,” utshilo. Ke ukuba ufuna ukufaka izinambuzane endaweni yenyama yenkomo okanye yenkukhu exabiso likhulu, iya kubiza kakhulu kule minyaka imbalwa izayo.
Owu, kwaye ayisithi kuphela esinokutya izinambuzane ezininzi - sinokuthi ngenye imini sithenge inyama yenkomo etyiswe zizinambuzane, nathi. Ithetha ntoni le nto? UPaul Fantom weFAO ukholelwa ukuba izinambuzane zinezona zinto zinokwenzeka njengokutya kwezilwanyana. “Okwangoku, eyona mithombo yeprotheyini kukutya kwezilwanyana ziimbotyi zesoya kunye nomgubo wentlanzi, ngoko ke sondla iimveliso zenkomo ezinokutyiwa ngabantu, nto leyo engasebenzi kakuhle,” utshilo. “Ngezinambuzane, sinokuzondla inkunkuma ephilayo engakhuphisaniyo neemfuno zabantu.” Singasathethi ke ukuba izinambuzane zifuna indawo encinci kunye namanzi okunyusa xa kuthelekiswa, yithi, iimbotyi zesoya. Kodwa uFantom ulumkise ngelithi kungathatha iminyaka eliqela phambi kokuba kubekho imveliso eyaneleyo yokwenza ukutya kwezinambuzane kukhuphisane nemithombo yangoku yokutya kwezilwanyana, kwaye imigaqo efunekayo yokusebenzisa izinambuzane kumatyathanga ethu okutya ikhona.
Ngoko ke, kungakhathaliseki ukuba siyichaza njani na, izinambuzane ziphelela ekutyeni. Ngaba ukutya iqebengwana lekhilikithi yetshokolethi kungasindisa iplanethi? Hayi, kodwa ekuhambeni kwexesha, isiphumo esongezelekayo sabantu abaninzi abatya izixa ezincinci zokutya kwezinambuzane zinokubonelela ngenyama eyongezelelekileyo kunye nezixhobo kuluntu olukhulayo lweplanethi- kwaye zikuncede uhlangabezane nenani leprotheyini yakho kwinkqubo.
