Kibble
Kibble is a common type of cheap, vitamin-packed food in the Cyberpunk universe.
Overview
Kibble takes the form of dry and grainy pellets that contain the nine amino acids necessary for the human body to function, as well as a large amounts of vitamins. They taste like dog food, hence the name Kibble.[1] It is composed mostly of kelp, plankton, and soy proteins.[2]
Kibble was originally designed by the company Purina Foods after the Central American Wars caused major food shortages in the area. It was quickly adopted by other countries as an affordable source of nutrients.[3] Like potato chips, they now come in several brands and flavours.[4]
