The Editor Presents: The Snacks Edition

Join our editor, Missy Green, in a 15-minute roundup of highlights from The World of Food Ingredients’ snack edition. Consumers are finding even more occasions to snack in 2025 compared to last year, with many snacking during meals or replacing meals altogether. This edition features insight into the latest snack trends, backed by data from Innova Market Insights, expert analysis, and industry voices. In addition to snack design and standout NPD, we’ll take a peek at formulation insights spanning fermented flavor enhancers, hydrocolloids in plant-based snacks, newly approved blues to use, and a new product on the US market today that combines cultured cells with plant protein. Lastly, it’s hard to speak about food trends without mentioning GLP-1. Our health and wellness section covers metabolic health ingredients and microbiome solutions, including those specific to women’s health.
