2023 Food Trends
The world of food is changing. We’re seeing more plant-based proteins and new types of milk, but we’re also seeing more insects and snails in our food. (Yes, you read that right.) We asked several experts to share their predictions for what we’ll be eating in 2020 and beyond:
Plant-based proteins
If you’re looking for a plant-based protein, look no further than your local grocery store. Plant-based proteins are on the rise as more people choose to remove animal products from their diets.
Plant-based foods have been shown to be healthier and better for the environment than animal products, but they can also be more sustainable when combined with technology such as aquaponics or vertical farming that reduces waste while producing more food per acre of land.
Edible packaging
While edible packaging is still a relatively new concept, it has already proven to be an effective way to reduce waste. Edible packaging can be made from plants, seeds, and other ingredients that are biodegradable and compostable. Because of its nature, edible packaging doesn’t require any additional materials for production or disposal. This makes it more sustainable than traditional plastics or papers – and better for the environment overall! In addition to being used as food containers themselves (think potato chip bags), edible packaging can also be applied as labels on other products such as detergents or beauty products; this allows consumers to easily identify what they’re buying without using up unnecessary resources like paper or plastic bags at checkout counters.
Alternative milk
Coconut milk: The most popular alternative to cow’s milk, coconut has gained popularity in recent years as an ingredient in everything from yogurt to coffee creamer.
Almond milk: This nut-based beverage is lower in calories than traditional dairy, but it still packs a punch when it comes to nutrients like calcium and vitamin D.
Hemp seed milk: This plant-based option contains omega-3 fatty acids, which can help lower cholesterol levels when consumed regularly.
Soybean milk: Soybean is another popular plant-based option that’s high in protein and Vitamin B12 – two important nutrients for your body’s health!
Oat/rice/quinoa milks are also great choices if you’re looking for something on the sweeter side; they have more sugar than other types of alternative milks (which means they taste delicious), but they won’t spike your blood sugar levels like regular cow’s milk would because they have fewer carbs than dairy products do
Activated charcoal
Activated charcoal is a form of carbon that has been processed to have an extremely large surface area. Activated charcoal has been used for centuries as a natural remedy to cleanse the body and remove toxins, but it’s recently become popular in modern medicine because it can adsorb certain drugs and chemicals from the digestive tract.
Activated charcoal works by binding to substances such as toxins, gas or other materials that might be harmful if they were absorbed into your body through digestion or inhalation (such as smoke). This makes them easier to remove from your system via urination or defecation respectively.
Fermented foods
Fermented foods have been around for centuries, but they’re becoming more popular today. This is because fermented foods are good for your gut health and immune system. In fact, according to one study published in the Journal of Applied Microbiology, eating fermented vegetables may help you maintain a healthy weight.
Insects and snails in your food. (Yes, you read that right.)
Insects and snails are a sustainable food source, and they’re going to be on your plate in the next few years.
The world population is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050 – that’s about 2 billion more people than there are now. The global demand for food is already unsustainable, so it’s important that we start thinking outside of our traditional methods of producing it. Insects and snails can help us achieve this goal while also providing an alternative protein source that is both healthy and delicious!
We will continue to demand healthier and sustainable foods.
Food trends are changing. We are demanding healthier, more sustainable foods. This is good for the environment, our health and economy; it also benefits the animals who produce these products.
Sustainable food is produced using practices that do not harm the environment or animal welfare.
By eating more sustainably-produced meat, dairy and eggs we can help protect our planet from climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions from livestock production such as methane released through belching or manure management practices (such as feeding cattle grain rather than grass).
We are at a turning point and the future of food is looking brighter. With the increased demand for healthier foods, we can expect more options on our plates that are both sustainable and delicious.
