　　In the Dogless Hotdog, meat is swapped with baby carrots and topped by seaweed. The bright green bun is made from algae.

　　在道格拉斯热狗里，肉用小胡萝卜代替，上面覆以海藻作装饰。鲜绿色的小圆面包是用藻类制成的。

　　Customers could finish the meal with a scoop of microgreen ice cream, made by combining herbs such as basil and mint with fruit juices.

　　顾客可以用一勺微绿色的冰淇淋来结束这顿饭，这种冰淇淋是用罗勒和薄荷等草药混合果汁制成的。

　　The wacky alternatives, which won’t be appearing on an Ikea cafe menu anytime soon, are being developed by its research lab, Space 10, in Copenhagen, Denmark.

　　这些古怪的替代品不会很快出现在宜家餐厅菜单上，位于丹麦哥本哈根的“太空10号”实验室正在研发它们。
