New York Section IFT Cutting Through Consumer Confusion Unraveling Food Complexity Webinar

It is a complex and confusing world out there for consumers, especially when it comes to food and drink. This presentation will explore three of those areas.

First, we'll talk about formulation, including a discussion of consumer understanding and attitudes regarding ultra-processed foods (UPF).

Next, we'll look at some of the latest healthy eating issues consumers are facing, including the confusion over what to eat, how to eat, navigating GLP-1 nutritional concerns, and the importance of protein and fiber in the diet.

Third, we'll talk a bit about costs and prices, looking at how consumers are modifying their food and beverage choices to economize.
