This gentleman is consuming an anatomical sandwich - an artificial organism made specifically to take the form of a bun with filling, ready to eat, at the end of its life cycle. Like a banana.

The cheese is blue because at some point the number of cheese species grew so large that people couldn't distinguish that many shades of red, yellow an orange.

The sandwich itself feeds on petroleum, naturally.

It's called post-agriculture and most food is made like this since the 2120s. Beings that are neither plant nor animal nor fungus, devoid of any life functions other than growth. Natural produce is for eccentric people willing to splurge on food. The consensus is that if it grew out of the dirt, it also tastes like dirt and makes you feel like dirt when you eat it. Synthetic food is tastier, healthier, more filling and more varied.

A concept of a "food gap" exists among humanitarians - the idea that because poor countries still use ordinary agriculture, their citizens must suffer perpetual dietary deficiencies and waste plenty of time on preparation.
