The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth

The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth was called by H. G. Wells "a fantasia on the change of scale in human affairs. . . . I had hit upon [the idea] while working out the possibilities of the near future in a book of speculations called Anticipations (1901)." Published in 1904, the novel is one of his less well-known scientific romances. There have been various B-movie adaptations (see below).
