While animal- and plant-protein fortification was plentiful, products made from inherently protein-rich ingredients stood out. Here, ancient wheat varieties, legumes, and real and alternative eggs enhanced new products targeted for every daypart, giving consumers the macronutrient they crave most, even in chocolate.

Summary
Inherent Protein Around the Clock | While animal- and plant-protein fortification was plentiful, products made from inherently protein-rich ingredients stood out. Here, ancient wheat varieties, legumes, and real and alternative eggs enhanced new products targeted for every daypart, giving consumers the macronutrient they crave most, even in chocolate. |
Food and Drink, Just for Me | The natural and organic food and drink industry excels at products that appeal to multifarious taste preferences as well as health and wellness goals. This was well-reflected at the show, where many brands offered culturally aligned products and flavour profiles. For more on the cultural cross-pollination of cuisines in the US, see America’s New Global Palate. |
Trusting the Source | Natural and organic products are valued for their transparent sourcing and ingredient quality. This year, Regenerative Organic Certified products have grown in number and visibility, providing reassuring accreditation for ethically and environmentally minded consumers. Brands are also earning trust by using wholly natural ingredients or partnering with reputable brands. |
Instant Beneficial Convenience | New nourishing convenience products were on display at the event. These ranged from frozen Korean street snacks to no-heat Mexican ‘walking tamales’. The most innovative come to life instantly simply by adding water. |
