Better-for-you ingredients grabbed the spotlight at the recent food and beverage trade fair Anuga 2021 (Cologne, Germany). The emerging high protein soy alternative sacha inchi from Green Mind Solutions (GMS) for example, offers a range of applications. The sacha inchi seed, grown in Colombia and Peru, is eaten like almonds or sunflower seeds, and can be incorporated into other foods and drinks. It is high in omegas 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids, and contains vegan proteins with all nine essential amino acids. The company has made a range of sacha inchi-based snacks, beverages, and flours for baked treats, sharing its product concepts with Amazon, Nestlé, and Purina. Other hot trends showcased at Anuga included probiotic-enriched meat alternatives, keto chips made from pomegranates, whole meals in a bottle, and prebiotic cereal. India’s Fit & Flex is planning to launch a line of savory prebiotic cereals, including lemon-mint-chili, tangy tomato, and cheese flavors.
