April 10, 2025: 12:00 AM EST
Local Style, a new potato chip brand founded by former Foxtrot executive Laura Gardner, launched this week with flavors inspired by iconic Chicago foods—deep-dish pizza, Italian beef and Chicago-style hot dogs. The kettle-cooked chips are vegetarian and free from artificial flavors and colors. Gardner, a longtime CPG veteran, developed the brand after being laid off, drawing on inspiration from international snack trends. Local Style chips are available at 15 local shops, with plans to expand citywide. A new Hot Giardiniera flavor is coming soon, and the chips will appear at upcoming street festivals. Gardner self-funded the venture and is working to establish Local Style as a uniquely local snack brand.

Post Set To Close Two US Cereal Plants

April 9, 2025: 12:00 AM EST
Post Holdings will close cereal manufacturing plants in Cobourg, Ontario and Sparks, Nevada by the end of 2025 in a decision affecting around 300 employees. It reflects declining demand for traditional breakfast cereals, as more consumers choose lower-carb, lower-sugar and more portable options like protein bars and yogurt. Post reported a 2.3% drop in cereal volume in its most recent quarter and plans to shift production to other facilities in its network. CEO Nicolas Catoggio said the move is part of a broader effort to align production with changing consumer habits.

Texas Probes WK Kellogg’s “Healthy” Claims

April 8, 2025: 12:00 AM EST
Texas is investigating WK Kellogg’s “healthy” marketing claims for cereals like Froot Loops and Frosted Flakes. Officials allege these products contain petroleum-based artificial dyes linked to health issues such as hyperactivity and hormonal imbalances. Although WK Kellogg announced plans to remove artificial dyes and the preservative butylated hydroxytoluene BHT), these changes have not yet happened in the US. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently urged food companies to eliminate such ingredients and called on the FDA to close loopholes that let firms self-approve ingredients. His goal is to remove artificial dyes from the food supply by 2028.

BFY Snacks Face R&D Challenges from Reformulation, Regulation Hurdles

April 3, 2025: 12:00 AM EST
BFY snacks sales are growing globally, expected to reach $75 billion by 2030. However, SNAXPO25 hosted an expert discussion about the challenges snack makers face as they develop healthier products. Reformulating with functional ingredients like fiber and whole grains often impacts taste, texture and shelf life. Consumers increasingly expect snacks to meet personal health needs while maintaining flavor, and brands are turning to AI and data to better understand shifting preferences. Regulatory uncertainty around new ingredients like adaptogens complicates marketing claims and at the same time, scrutiny of ingredients is intensifying at both federal and state levels. New FDA rules and bipartisan support for tighter food standards signal further pressure on snack makers to balance health claims with consumer satisfaction.

Health-conscious consumers in India drive demand for BFY snacks with nutritious ingredients and clean labels.

Report Urges Expanding UK Sugar Tax To Food

March 18, 2025: 12:00 AM EST
A new report from the University of Reading recommends extending the UK’s sugar tax to all processed foods to reduce obesity and improve public health. The report highlights the success of the soft drinks levy, which cut sugar content in beverages by 44%, and suggests similar action for products like biscuits, milkshakes, and cereals. It also calls for a salt tax to address high blood pressure and heart disease. The authors say voluntary measures have been ineffective and mandatory changes are necessary for improving health outcomes and reducing environmental damage.

Where Indulgence Meets Health And Functionality In Snacks

March 14, 2025: 12:00 AM EST
Savoury snacks are evolving to balance indulgent flavours with better-for-you ingredients. Consumers want bold, authentic flavors like umami-rich parmesan, paprika and adventurous blends such as truffle popcorn and pickle seasoning, as well as global flavours, including Korean bulgogi, Mexican Tajín and Japanese wasabi. Health-focused options like high-protein chickpeas and low-sodium alternatives are becoming more common. Functional ingredients like probiotics, adaptogens and choline add nutritional benefits. Advanced flavour modulation and AI-driven manufacturing help brands reduce salt and sugar without losing taste. The rise of “swicy” (sweet and spicy) reflects growing demand for complex flavours.

France Updates Nutri-Score For Clearer Choices

March 14, 2025: 12:00 AM EST
France approved an updated version of Nutri-Score, the five-color nutrition label, to help consumers make healthier choices based on salt and sugar content. While the health ministry supports the update, Agriculture Minister Annie Genevard raised concerns about its impact on traditional French products like cheese and charcuterie. Brands using Nutri-Score have two years to update their packaging. The system, introduced in 2017, remains voluntary, though the EU continues to debate making it mandatory.
