  • Kraft Heinz: Hungry for Growth After Austerity Diet | Financial Times 19.02.19, 0746
    Kraft Heinz: hungry for growth after austerity diet | Financial Times 19.02.19, 0746 The Big Read Kraft Heinz Co Kraft Heinz: hungry for growth after austerity diet With revenues flat and shares falling, the food group is cooking up fresh plans Alistair Gray and James Fontanella-Khan 2 HOURS AGO Pornography is an unconventional subject for a family food company. But during commercial breaks from the Super Bowl earlier this month, Kraft Heinz used the idea of “food porn” to promote frozen meals to American football fans. Without ever mentioning the P word during the primetime broadcast, the ads for its ‘Devour’ brand played on the theme of a young man becoming hooked after ogling online images of “steamy” mac and cheese. “This addiction can happen to anyone,” his girlfriend warns. The company went a lot further online: it even took out ads on an actual porn website. The Devour campaign is the latest sign from Kraft Heinz and its Brazilian investment backers, 3G Capital, that they are prepared to take risks to win back shoppers who have ditched the mass- produced foods that were household staples for generations. In the process, the company is trying to change the view of what has been one of the most influential and controversial business models of recent decades. 3G, whose brands range from Budweiser to Burger King, is known less for its marketing prowess and more for an intense focus on costs that has served as a model for corporate America in how to make money in mature markets. A tie-in advert with the superhero character Deadpool for the hit movie sequel promoted the Devour brand Yet almost four years since 3G engineered the $63bn megamerger of Kraft and Heinz, the company’s financial performance has stuttered with the shares down around one-third since the 2015 tie-up.

The goal of the thesis is to address two questions: does music significantly change flavor perception, and can music change the hedonic experience of a meal? Experimentally, I looked at ways to measure changes in sensory perception. Artistically, I explored how external factors can alter the eating experience.

  • New York City Dining
    Dossier 3 | WORKSHEET 2 NEW YORK CITY DINING MOMOFUKU KO Cuisine American Nouveau, Japanese/Sushi, Korean Price range $$$$ Things to know Reservations are only made on the Internet and gone by 10:05 a.m., but cancellations occur throughout the day, so you might get lucky if you keep trying online. Ideal meal The fixed-price menu is constantly evolving. Favourite dishes include: kimchee purée, foie gras, deep-fried short rib and cereal-milk panna cotta. Review David Chang’s white-hot East Village dining empire, Momofuku Ko, isn’t a restaurant in the normal sense of the word, it’s more of a dining club. It is a twelve-seat bar; customers are chosen at random by a computerised system and seats can be booked only a week in advance and only by logging on to the Momofuku website. So is it worth the effort? Chang’s inspiration is the classic Japanese bar-dining model. You can eat a delicious ten-course dinner for around $125. It’s the chef’s first attempt at ambitious, haute cuisine cooking and as the big dishes with a fusion of ingredients appear, I have to admit, it works. MINETTA TAVERN Cuisine French Price range $$$ Things to know Minetta serves an abbreviated late-night ‘supper’ menu after midnight. Recommended Roasted marrow bones; pig’s trotters; a Black Label dishes burger or a New York strip and chocolate soufflé. Review Keith McNally’s Minetta Tavern is a revamped version of a 1930s pub and whilst he has taken the place upscale he’s wisely left most of the old saloon-era interior intact.
