Study Notes
Trends in Dining, Context, and Projections (Week 3)
- The factors impacting food trends include environment, health, ethical/social concerns, economic factors, and aesthetics. These factors are interconnected, meaning changes in one area affect others.
- A market segmentation approach categorizes food trends using axes like exoticism, sophistication, variety of tastes, fun/pleasure, natural/medical solutions, wellness, and ease of preparation. This is an approach to understanding how different trends appeal to distinct consumer groups.
- Early food movements include Hippocrates ("food as medicine"), traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, and others. Philosophers like Epicurus, Socrates, and Confucius cautioned against food excess.
- Trends are distinct from fads; trends represent enduring changes in behavior and attitudes, while fads are short-lived popular interests.
- Identifying food trends involves observing industry trends, chef discussions, social media, and consumer reactions regarding the development of new ideas in the food industry. Paying attention to the types of ingredients and design being used to attract specific demographics is essential. The supply chain is also essential to monitor because other industries influence the food industry's choices.
- Food trends follow a lifecycle: an embryonic phase (exclusive, elite adopters), early adopters, mainstream adoption, tapering off, and end-stage obsolescence.
- Nouvelle Cuisine (1973+) emphasized health and aesthetics, promoting fresh, quality ingredients.
- The ten commandments of Nouvelle Cuisine were designed to improve food quality, reducing overcooking, using high-quality ingredients, and streamlining menu offerings while adding creativity to presentations.
- Current trends, besides these, include the rise of veganism and vegetarianism, driven by concerns over health, the environment, and animal welfare. Percentage figures for these trends, for different countries, were given.
- The "classic pyramid"—a visual representation of food groups and dietary guidelines—was obsolete information, despite potentially useful data and graphics that were referenced. An alternative, revised pyramid graphic with more updated categories is also included.
- Canada's Food Guide provides serving recommendations for different age groups and genders.
- One Food Guide serving includes varied amounts of foods—35-45g bread, 35g pita/tortilla, 125ml cooked rice/pasta/couscous, 30g cold cereal, 175ml hot cereal, etc.
- Multi-sensory approaches, like ASMR, and tactile experiences in food media are emerging as key aspects of the food experience.
- NeuroNutrition and biohacking link personalized food choices to various aspects of health and well-being.
- Slow Food is a movement advocating for preserving local food cultures and traditions while promoting greater awareness of how our food affects the world, with "good, clean and fair" principles, and a detailed organizational structure for international cooperation.
- Farm-to-table emphasizes direct sourcing of ingredients, and this approach offers advantages in taste, quality, environmental concerns, and support for local producers. However, skepticism also exists about claims of fraudulent or misleading sourcing. This approach is also connected to concepts of food sovereignty.
- Modernist Cuisine utilizes scientific principles and incorporates innovation.
