For most of the 10,000 years since humans invented Agriculture, scarcity has been the norm. Food was difficult to produce, store, transport, and in many cases, financially challenging for many humans to buy. That’s not really the case anymore, at least not in the developed world. Affluent countries such as the U.S. in the last half century have figured out food production. Scarcity no longer determines food choice for most Americans (or Canadians or Europeans or Australians), trends do. Food fads are real. Think Greek yogurt today where as it was frozen yogurt in the late 80’s. Gluten free and low carb today will give way to the next trend in food consumption. So how do you successfully navigate food trends? Can your product or industry market or innovate it’s way to prosperity if the trend is against you? We explore that subject in this episode. From milk to eggs, avocados to beef, food trends are the reality of the marketplace. We’ll discuss how to navigate those trends.
