Age influences coffee preferences, especially when comparing the appeal of fermented coffees to traditional dark and medium roasts. This is a standout insight from the #mavencoffeechallenge. Younger age groups, especially those between 25-34 years old, show a strong preference for Coffee D (fermented coffee), with a 40% favorability rate. This preference diminishes significantly in older age groups, with those over 65 years old showing only a 21% preference for Coffee D. In contrast, older consumers show a stronger preference for dark roast Coffee C, with the 55-64 age group leading at 28%. Younger coffee drinkers are more open to exploring new coffee flavors, while older coffee drinkers tend to stick to the classic, richer profiles of dark roasts. If Frank Costanza was here, he'd surely let out a frustrated, "What's the deal with this new coffee? In my day, we didn't need our coffee to be a science experiment. We drank it dark, we drank it strong, and it worked, dammit! Serenity now! #excel #powerbi #dataanalytics #datascience

Elements. Singularly, okay. Like strawberries. Like chocolate. But TOGETHER, elements blend flavors and strengths and colors and textures, to produce something totally unique, preferred, powerful, and transformative! Value those elements, but treasure what they transform to be, when vulnerably and thoughtfully together! #purposedrivenleadership #culturetransformation #changehealthcare #healingtogether

Here’s some food for thought: With Valentine’s Day tomorrow, many loved ones will give the ubiquitous candy heart to their sweethearts, but this year, there may be some consumers hesitant to do so.  A slew of headlines has appeared recently to warn about the possible dangers of Red Dye 3, common ingredient in US candies and beverages. Manufactures can’t afford to wait for regulation to catch up with the market and science data.  4Sight’s Future Set dashboard and Ingredient Compass Report gives brands a proactive approach to understanding villain ingredients in consumer goods.  To learn more, talk to our team here: https://lnkd.in/d7ssxZu4

Here are some thought starters and innovation inspiration for your #mondaysparks: 1. This article from The Wall Street Journal (https://lnkd.in/eiKifVaf) on how Driscoll's created a new premium opportunity selling fruit that previously had to be tossed for a number of very understandable business reasons. I was also fascinated by the stats on how, despite rising costs across groceries, consumers seem happy to pay for berries no matter what the price is. Are there opportunities for your business to leverage throw aways, waste, etc. in unique ways and, potentially, at premium prices? 2. This one is unique...I'll give you that...though I'm not entirely sure what to think about it. But, this new soda from Japan (https://lnkd.in/eBrekRjs) is a hunger management tool as the soda turns to jelly once consumed to fill the stomach. Interesting. There's no doubt, however, this brand has taken a unique position and certainly created a new food-based solution for hunger and weight management. Is your #innovation and #researchanddevelopment process focused, truly, on problem solving for your customers? 3. This one is likely not going to be completely new news to everyone but still I think kudos have to be giving for the bold foray into unexpected flavors and experiences. S'mores may not be everyone's go to with noodles but it's brave innovation at a time when there hasn't been a great deal of it. I guess the innovation could have gone one o two ways: create an authentic s'mores experience in an unexpected format or mold a s'mores experience with more savory notes to fit noodles without worrying about how authentically s'mores it was. Has anyone tried it? I'd love thoughts on how it worked.
