Little Treat Culture, Girl Dinner, Protein Ice Cream.. all 2024 F&B trends that point to a continued preference (especially among Gen Z) of snacking > meals. 🍟 Modern Restaurant Management (MRM) magazine calls out the staggering stat from Datassential that 74 percent of consumers have had a snack in place of a meal in the past week. In line with this trend, we're likely to see more F&B innovations, whether it's an LTO or a whole new concept like McDonald's CosMc's, in 2025. As Luis Martinez from Rubix Foods {client} puts it "Operators who have snack-specific offerings during these intermittent meal times will steal share from their competitors and drive an increase in frequency." Read the full article, below, then come back and tell us what snacking trends you are still thinking about from 2024.

In the age of AI, thought leadership holds more power than ever. But don't get it twisted... While genuine insights, unique perspectives + first-party data can help your brand stand out, AI has an important role in modern workflows. AI can't single-handedly write stand-out POV content… But it can help power up your efforts. Here's how: Data analysis - AI excels at analyzing large datasets to identify patterns and trends. Securely upload data sets and ask AI to uncover trends, check for anomalies, make leading predictions and more. Gap analysis - AI tools can identify topics that are underrepresented or avoided in mainstream discussions, offering thought leaders the opportunity to address gaps and present fresh insights. Organize ideas - Upload executive interview transcripts and conversations with SMEs to speed up development. AI can uncover novel insights, summarize key ideas and find stand-out quotes within materials. Optimize content - AI can offer up ways to enhance SEO, like how to improve readability, make headlines more compelling, incorporate key phrases throughout and more.
