OT: Sometimes, article headlines cause me mental anguish. Perhaps it's a deficiency that is my own, but often I find my reading the headline repeatedly while I wait for the content and I can't figure out what the author/editor meant. I get a couple sentences into the article and it hits me. In this case, I wanted an adjective after 'Tokyo,' but it turns out I needed to render it like this:
"Is the Future of Food [located] in Tokyo?"
The logistics for moving large quantities of food is very difficult and in many impoverished countries there is no large-scale transportation infrastructure -- so while food rots, people starve, and little can be done about it.
