Welcome to the latest edition of Just Food’s digital magazine.

For an industry already seeing growing consumer interest in health and sustainability, the pandemic has upped the ante for product developers at the world’s food manufacturers.

More consumers are now paying more attention to the links between what they eat and their health, while there is increasing demand on food companies to make their businesses – and what they produce – more environmentally sustainable.

This issue shines a light on a clutch of emerging ingredients proponents say could have a significant impact on what we eat – and each have health or the environment (or both) at their core.

Innovation is the lifeblood of the sector but perhaps has it never been so testing to come up with the recipe and product that will meet consumers’ demands.
