The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth is a science fiction novel by H.G. Wells, first published in 1904. Wells called it "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)." There have been various B-movie adaptations. The novel is about a group of scientists who invent a food that accelerates the growth of children and turns them into giants when they become adults.

The Food of the Gods is divided into three "books": "Book I: The Discovery of the Food"; "Book II: The Food in the Village"; and "Book III: The Harvest of the Food."
