Dairy, more than any other food category, is perfectly positioned to profit from the most important consumer trends shaping the food industry, said Julian Mellentin (pictured), the director of New Nutrition Business, London. In his report released in October, Mellentin outlines 14 trends driving the category.
In “Key Trends in the Business of Dairy Nutrition,” Mellentin points to savory flavors, like Veggie Kefir in tomato, beet and cucumber from Lifeway Foods and yogurt in six vegetable flavors, including carrot, parsnip and sweet potato from Blue Hill.
