The very first meal that American astronaut John Glenn ate in space consisted of applesauce and sugar tablets. Luckily, what astronauts eat now has evolved. Companies like Mission: Space Food are designing high-quality, nutrient-dense foods to satiate astronauts' appetites and earthlings' nutritional needs.

In this episode, we spoke with Graham Greene, the Chief Product Officer at Mission: Space Food, who also happened to be a chef and butcher at Michelin-starred restaurants worldwide. We chatted about how astronauts eat in space, Mission: Space Food's new multisensory product, and how it can help solve issues, like malnutrition, here on earth. He also shared their plans for creating personalized nutrition and thoughts on the future of food in space.
