This Futuristic Water Bottle Is an Edible, Gelatinous Blob
The Ooho! orbs are meant to reduce carbon emissions and plastics pollution.
In the future, rehydrating on the go might not mean chugging from a bottle, but inhaling a gelatinous, edible blob that looks like water floating on the space station.
That's the messed-up vision of the folks at London's Skipping Rocks Lab, anyway. They've devised a method for home cooks to whip up servings of water encased in algae-based gel. People consume the squishy balls by biting them and sucking out the liquid or—if they have great gag reflexes—swallowing them like oysters. (Better have a friend who knows the Heimlich present.)
