Dani kicks off a new year of Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg by sitting down with Kim Severson, an award-winning national food correspondent for the New York Times, to talk about what to expect for food and agriculture systems in 2025. They discuss what's happening to portion sizes in restaurants as GLP-1s like Ozempic become more popular; how the changing political landscape in the U.S. may impact everything from agricultural research to the future of journalism; and the foods and flavors that Severson expects to see more of, including why 2025 is the year of sauce.

Plus, a few of Food Talk's guests from 2024 return to the podcast to share their hopes for food and agriculture systems in the new year. Hear from Saru Jayaraman of One Fair Wage, Edie Mukiibi of Slow Food International, author and journalist Roger Thurow, Dr. Michael Kotutwa Johnson of the University of Arizona, Anna Lappé of the Global Alliance for the Future of Food, and Regina Harmon of Food Recovery Network.
