SUMMARY:Cutting Through Consumer Confusion: Unraveling Food Complexity
DESCRIPTION:Cutting Through Consumer Confusion\n\n\n\nUnraveling Food Complexity\n\n\n\nIt is a complex and confusing world out there for consumers\, especially when it comes to food and drink. This presentation will explore three of those areas. \n\n\n\nFirst\, we’ll talk about formulation\, including a discussion of consumer understanding and attitudes regarding ultra-processed foods (UPF). \n\n\n\nNext\, we’ll look at some of the latest healthy eating issues consumers are facing\, including the confusion over what to eat\, how to eat\, navigating GLP-1 nutritional concerns\, and the importance of protein and fiber in the diet. \n\n\n\nThird\, we’ll talk a bit about costs and prices\, looking at how consumers are modifying their food and beverage choices to economize. \n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMs. Lynn Dornblaser\n\n\n\nClient Advisor\, Mintel Solutions\n\n\n\nLynn Dornblaser brings almost 40 years of product trend knowledge to her position as Client Advisor.
