The Specialty Food Industry is always a trendsetter - thanks for including the Specialty Food Association, Gabriela Barkho!: Leana Rogers Salamah, senior vp of marketing and communications at the Specialty Food Association, said that changing consumer preferences and values always show up first in specialty foods, then followed by mainstream products. While nutritional professionals have been recommending refueling with healthy protein sources for decades, there are other recent factors igniting the wave of novelty foods. Amid the boom of GLP-1 drug usage and an increased focus on weight loss, Salamah pointed to SFA research showing that “a high-protein diet was the top choice for consumers who fully committed to one diet in 2023.” Within the specialty food industry, Salamah said brands and food manufacturers “have been driving protein-centric innovation for years.” Modern Retail #SpecialtyFood #CPG #Trends

❓ DID YOU KNOW THAT MOST FORTIFIED CEREALS CONTAIN SHEEP'S LANOLIN? 🌾 Cereal giant WK Kellogg Co ventures into the vegan space with its new Eat Your Mouth Off cereal brand, in a bid to appeal to the snacking habits of Gen Z shoppers. 🥣 Eat Your Mouth Off, a new brand by US food giant WK Kellogg Co, is a plant-based, sugar-free and protein-packed cereal. Coming in two flavours, the brand’s launch comes as the company behind cereal staples like Corn Flakes and Rice Krispies makes a pivot towards health-conscious younger consumers. 💪 Rolling out nationwide this month, the cereal puffs lists soy protein isolate, pea protein isolate, canola oil, lentil protein and oat fibre among its ingredients, and packs in 22 grams of plant protein per serving. It contains zero added sugars and 2 grams of net carbs, thanks to the use of sucralose and stevia leaf as its sweeteners. At the moment, the brand has two flavours, Chocolate and Fruity, both of which come in a 7.5-ounce box. 🧒 The launch of the product comes as WK Kellogg Co turns its attention to the younger generation of Gen Z shoppers and their increasingly health-conscious habits. 🍫 With old-school premier breakfast options becoming less popular, the company is reinventing the wheel to create a “deconstructed” new alternative aimed at capturing the fun yet conscious tastes of Gen Z. In Green Queen Media’s latest expert food trends of 2024, Gen Zs were described as the “snacking generation” who crave “variety and small portions…with functionality”. ❓ What do you think about Kellogg’s venture into vegan cereals? 👇 Tap here to read the full article. #GreenQueen #foodtech #altprotein #futurefoods #nutrition #sustainability #GenZ
