CONSUMER INSIGHT #3 - WORKSHOP QUESTION Sous Vide On-Demand Sous vide foods are delivered for evolved heat-and-eat convenience

Implications - Stepping beyond the convenience of meal kit delivery services, an increasing number of brands are offering pre-cooked sous vide meals for people and pets. These services allow the consumer to simply warm up the food (most often in a hot water bath) and serve. This shift speaks to the progression of sous vide as a cooking technique into mainstream consumer consciousness, as well as a heightened expectation of quality for the foodie consumer that is also looking to satisfy their desire for convenience.

Implications - Consumers are more concerned than ever about where their food comes from – with considerations like whether it’s fresh and what ecological footprint it’s already made. To educate consumers and help them feel good about their purchases, brands are calling on technology like blockchain to communicate exclusive details about their products. With leading technology becoming more comforting than confronting, brands can begin implementing high-tech strategies to share product information with consumers in a way that establishes trust.

Implications - Restaurants are opting to become entirely, or almost entirely, automated and employee-free in order to enhance the speed and efficiency in which consumers' food is served.

CONSUMER INSIGHT #8 - WORKSHOP QUESTION Truffled Condiment Truffle-infused condiments add an element of luxury to the everyday

Implications - The advent of foodie culture has shifted dining habits to be a reflection of status for many social media obsessed Millennials, which for some has resulted in an appetite for fine foods on a shoestring budget. In an effort to satiate these luxury consumption habits, sauce and condiment makers have begun infusing their products with truffle flavoring. Doing so allows consumers to engage in a moment of everyday escapism without compromising on affordability and without resigning flavor preferences.
