    5 Expected Food Trends for 2018

    January 12, 2018

    Being a food blogger, I try to stay up to date on all the industry food trends. Following food writers Marion Nestle and Dianne Jacob, among magazines and blogs, I have found my top five food trends which may influence the grocery and restaurant industries for 2018. 5. Sugar Under Fire Admit it, the United States has an obesity health crisis.  One reason the epidemic seems to get worse each year is sugar consumption. I am not talking about naturally occurring sweeteners found in strawberries and fruit.  I mean artificially manufactured sugars, which processed food manufactures use to add flavor.

    Marketing Food To Our Children – PART 4

    September 21, 2016

    A four part series examining the United States Government’s relationship with the agricultural industry and how that directly affects your family’s health There is little doubt governmental policies regarding subsidizing farmers to grow more corn, soybeans, wheat and others have not changed since the 1940’s. Originally meant to help our country out of a depression, these policies have encouraged agribusiness to develop ways to create more, cheaper products using these subsidized crops.   These cheaper products, high-fructose corn syrup, nitrates, and other “processed” foods have directly impacted the health of our country.  Leading the world in heart disease, diabetes and obesity, America is falling into a desperate health crisis.  Despite…

    Distribution & Marketing of Our Food – PART 3

    September 14, 2016

    A four part series examining the United States Government’s relationship with the agricultural industry and how that directly affects your family’s health So far, we have examined the United States governmental hold on our food supply and how subsidized foods are dangerous to our health.  Corn, the number one subsidized food in this country, is processed and manipulated into everything from high fructose corn syrup to feed for cattle.  The Agricultural Department and the Food and Drug Administration have created an additive, detrimental food supply, contributing to our country’s ill health and obesity. Mass Distribution The Grocery Manufactures of America want to sell cheap processed foods, at higher prices in…
