Abstract
INTRODUCTION New food ingredients and processes are figuring more and more
prominently in the production of more nutritious, healthful, and better
balanced "designer foods." At the same time, some developments, such as those
from biotechnology, are being opposed by consumer groups and even by some
governments in overseas markets. The dizzying pace of industry announcements
as well as shifting consumer tastes and preferences can confound even the most
alert formulator
In addition, the review provides news on all issues and forces that affect the
food processing industry, such as clinical studies and research that can cause
dramatic shifts in consumer demand and eating habits; fluctuating prices of
important raw materials; the activities of regulatory agencies that can foster
or hamper growth for suppliers. It provides information on:
- New products
- Research studies
- Industry news
- New regulations
- News on markets, food safety, resources, and upcoming events
