The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth was called by H. G. Wells "a fantasia on the change of scale in human affairs. . . . I had hit upon while working out the possibilities of the near future in a book of speculations called Anticipations (1901)." Published in 1904, the novel is one of his less well-known scientific romances. There have been various B-movie adaptations (see below).

Famous quotes containing the words food and/or gods:
“God gave the righteous man a certificate entitling him to food and raiment, but the unrighteous man found a facsimile of the same in God’s coffers, and appropriated it, and obtained food and raiment like the former. It is one of the most extensive systems of counterfeiting that the world has seen.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Oh senseless man, who cannot possibly make a worm, and yet will make Gods by dozens.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
