Smallest Food Ever

From Science Sensei…
He goes where no man has gone before. He discovers new taste sensations. And he’s not ashamed to wear a fanny pack while doing it. Science Sensei: Science. Satire. Silly.

This week: The smallest food ever.

Nanotechnology, the control of matter on the atomic and molecular scale, has been touted for several years as the next big revolution in science. It’s already in some of the products we use today: stain-free pants, insulated paint, or transparent skin creams. But some of the more exciting nanotechnology applications–like tiny, “smart” drug delivery vehicles, little scaffolds that help your body regrow tissues like bone or blood vessels, or nano-sensors that travel through your body and diagnose disease–have plenty of roadblocks.

Enjoy!
