Of course, the best paper comes from wood. Wood comes from trees and trees are plants. Vegetables and fruit are plants too, and we eat a lot of them. So can we also eat wood and paper?

Little fish eat sea-plants; then bigger fish swim along and eat the ... Chickens eat bits of grass and give us... Think for a minute. What food not come from plants in some way?
Scientists can do wonderful things with plants. They can make food just like meat and cheese (奶酪). And they can make it without the help of animals. It is very good food too.
