Health Claim Use & Preferences In France And U.S.

July 18, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
INSEAD Knowledge recently published research that studied health claims of breakfast cereals and consumer preferences in the U.S. and France. The research found that “clean” claims – labels that highlight nothing artificial has been added – are the fastest-growing category in both France and the U.S. “Enriched” claims are the least used, while “diet” claims grew similarly in both countries. “Whole” claims like “wholesome” or “organic” grew faster in France and are now the second most popular category, whereas they remained in third place in the U.S. Regarding consumer preferences, the research found Americans prefer claims about the presence of good than about the absence of bad, while French consumers preferred more natural-based claims. The research hypothesized that the disparity between the claims that people like and the claims that companies are using is due to the high number of privately owned companies in the U.S. that target a niche market.

European Consumer Insights On Protein-Fortified Snacks

July 11, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Glanbia Nutritionals' European Healthy Snacking Innovation Team conducted new research that discovered fortified protein snacks are popular with European consumers, who are generally turning to perceived healthier snacks over more traditional options. Its research found 16 percent of respondents are eating protein-fortified snacks, such as protein bars, powders, cereals and pancakes, at least once a week. This jumps significantly to 29 percent for active lifestyle consumers, and 40 percent for sports performance consumers. Another finding is that taste is non-negotiable for consumers. It’s the number one requirement for protein products, followed by being high in protein, low in sugar, and filling. European protein bar users are showing an interest in protein cookies (50 percent) and brownies (47 percent), while 34 percent say protein crisps sound appealing. Baked goods such as protein-fortified pastries and donuts (30 percent) are also rated highly, as well as small, bite-sized formats like protein bites (30 percent) and balls (24 percent).

Opopop’s Innovations In The Popcorn Market

July 7, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Premium popcorn brand Opopop was founded in 2018 with the aim of innovating in the stagnant popcorn market. Opopop aims to differentiate itself from competitors such as Pop Secret and Orville Redenbacher’s through reimagining formats, flavors, and design. In 2021, Opopop launched its Flavor Wrapped Popcorn Kernels, which the company claims are the world’s first pre-flavored popcorn kernels. Each individual kernel is coated with flavoring, allowing the popcorn to be seasoned as it pops. This past January, Opopop launched its Peel + Pour cups, single-serve packages that contain popcorn kernels with a solid chunk of flavoring inside. The cups are meant to be used in Opopop’s collapsible silicone popper. Opopop also takes an experimental approach with its flavors, with varieties like Cinnalicious, Chedapeño, Salted Caramel and Maui Heat. In April, Opopop debuted its Wasabi flavor and last month launched its dill pickle flavor Pickle Monster. Opopop’s colorful branding and play on words attracts a younger audience. Opopop is available online on its website and in retailers such as Williams Sonoma and Foxtrot Market. The company is currently planning a wider retail launch at grocery stores to reach new consumers.

Vesela steams and slices the caterpillars to be used as pizza toppings and also dries and grinds them into flour that can be used in savory biscuits, cereals, and protein bars.

Cape Town Brand Plato Makes Its Crisps From Recycled Beer Grains

June 26, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Cape Town-based brand Plato collects spent grain, a by-product from beer production, to create its grain crisps. Each year, Plato's collects approximately 24 tons of left-over malted barley grains from Darling Brew, a beer maker in the Western Cape, and makes it into 6.5 tons of crisps a month. Plato’s crisps are manufactured by canola oil company Southern Oil, which owns the brand in part. The crisps are flash fried, which the company claims makes the fat content of the snack 50% lower than regular potato chips. Plato’s crisps are made to enjoy with beer and are available in three flavors: Jalapeño Chutney, Mature Cheddar, and Smoked BBQ. In the future, Plato is looking to use spent grain to produce crackers, cookies, and fermented drinks.

Australia Apple Crisp Brand Chippy Apples Expands Retail Footprint

June 24, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Australian-based apple snack brand has announced its expansion into over 400 stores across the country. Chippy Apples aims to reduce fresh produce waste and improve nutrition in children through its 100% apple crisps. The brand takes low-grade, local apples through a two-stage drying process that brings the apples’ moisture down to 0.1%. Chippy Apples is owned by Pipan Foods, a food manufacturing company based in Victoria. Pipan Foods is looking to improve upon the Chippy Apples brand through making its packaging compostable and applying its drying process to other seasonal produce including pears, mangos, and bananas. In addition, Pipan Foods is currently exploring a series of ‘hot sauce’ apples, including a Wasabi flavor.

Key Trends Within BFY Foods: Functionality & Dietary Requirements

June 24, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Within the BFY food landscape, two clear trends are emerging in product development: functional and diet-specific foods. Functional foods with claims of specific health benefits and ingredients such as adaptogens and nootropics are gaining traction. In 2021, global functional and fortified food sales reached $292 billion, including $83 billion in the US. A new functional snack start-up is DOH!, which offers vegan, gluten-free cookie dough enhanced with nutrients to target specific needs such as immune support and stress relief. Products promoting digestive health are particularly popular. For example, BelliWelli offers plant-based, gluten-free digestive health bars aimed at consumers suffering from irritable-bowel syndrome. Dalci serves a line of gut-friendly dessert bars formulated with anti-inflammatory ingredients such as avocado oil, coconut sugar and almond flour. Food alternatives are also increasingly popular as more consumers follow specific diets or eating patterns. Snow Days is a brand of organic, grain-free pizza bites made with a cassava flour crust, aimed to rival General Mill’s Totino’s Pizza Rolls. Additionally, Three Wishes Cereal, creates gluten-free, low sugar cereal that is formulated with chickpea, pea protein and tapioca.

Two Farmers As The Only Brand Of Chips Sold At Glastonbury

June 22, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Herefordshire brand Two Farmers provided the only chips sold at Glastonbury Festival due to its 100% plastic-free and compostable packets. Two Farmers packaging is derived from three layers of sustainable cellulose and plant-based and biodegradable ink and glues. Compared to typical chip packets that take decades to decompose, Two Farmers’ packaging decomposes into water, carbon dioxide and biomass within 26 to 38 weeks. Two Farmers’ emphasis on sustainability complement Glastonbury’s mission to make its event more environmentally friendly. In 2019, Glastonbury banned the sale of single-use plastic bottles, saving over one million bottles from waste.

Kellogg Is Splitting Into Three Businesses

June 21, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Kellogg Company has announced its decision to split into three independent companies focusing on cereal, snacks, and plant-based foods. Chairman and CEO Steve Cahillane claimed the division will give each company greater autonomy to encourage innovation and growth. The breakup will occur through two tax-free spinoffs that will be completed by the end of 2023. Cahillane will remain as the CEO of the global snacking business, which will include the snack brands Pringles, Cheez-Its and Pop-Tarts, along with Kellogg's international cereal portfolio, the group's African noodles business and the US Eggo unit. Kellogg’s snacking business will focus on innovation, brand building and expanding internationally, including in South America and AMEA. While much smaller, the plant-based unit will be led by the Morning Star Farms brand and focus on growth and product innovation. Kellogg shares jumped as much as 5.5 percent on the day of the announcement, the most in over a year. Under the plan, Kellogg shareholders will receive shares in the two spinoff companies on a pro rata basis.

Kellogg’s Attempts To Debase UK HFSS Regulations In Court

June 17, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Kellogg’s has turned to the U.K. High Court in a three-pronged attempt to prevent the upcoming government HFSS restrictions. Kellogg’s first argument claims the HFSS regulations should be declared “ultra vires” because enforcement powers given to local authorities to enforce the rules have never been approved by parliament. If the court decides the enforcement regime is illegal it could force the government to completely discard the legislation. It could also allow the regulations to continue but order the government to revaluate how they are enforced, leaving the ban in limbo. The second strand of Kellogg’s case centres on the HFSS nutrient profiling model, which was set up in 2004 as the basis for Ofcom’s policing of advertising aimed at children. Kellogg’s claims the model has never been before parliament. If the argument succeeds, the government would be forced to either drop the legislation or re-pass it with a different model. Kellogg’s third claim is that cereals should be excluded from the clampdown because most consumers add milk to the product, contributing to calcium intake and the cereal’s overall nutritional value. Within the court documents, Kellogg’s claimed it could lose up to £113 million in sales if the government’s crackdown on HFSS promotions goes ahead. Within the coming weeks, the court is expected to reveal which of the legal arguments the review will hear. If Kellogg’s arguments succeed, it would have huge implications on the government’s current obesity strategy.

Magic Spoon’s Success Through Social Media

June 16, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Start-up cereal company Magic Spoon was founded in 2019 with the aim of providing a healthy alternative to sugary, iconic cereals. Magic Spoon’s cereal is gluten-free, grain-free, low-carb and high in protein and is available in several large retailers including Target and Walmart.

The company also has an affiliate program, where members can make 20 percent commission on every purchase made through their link.

The Increasing Popularity Of Seaweed

June 15, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
According to P&S Intelligence, the worldwide seaweed market is currently worth over $500 million and is expected to reach almost $1.4 billion by 2030. Although seaweed has always been a huge part of Asian cuisine, the food is growing in popularity among Westerners. Brands including SeaSnax, Ocean’s Halo, Annie Chun’s and gimME Health Foods are leading this snackable seaweed trend. Seaweed’s different species, textures and formats and unique flavor profile have led it to be an interesting and diverse snacking option. It is also marketed as a superfood as it is rich in minerals such as iodine and vitamins like K and B12, and it is seen as sustainable as it contributes to water health and doesn't require additional land or resources.
