    Beyond Meat and the plant-based bloodbath

    Beyond Meat, the California-based meat substitute brand, will one day be a business school case study of failure. The company's CEO famously declared that his aim was to "to completely replace animals in the food system by 2035". What happened? Beyond has never made a profit in 12 years.  Each $1 of product it sold in 2025 cost it $1.95 to make and it has $1 billion of losses on its balance sheet. Beyond is not alone. The plant-based dairy and meat substitute delusion sucked up $20 billion of investment capital only to detonate on contact with reality. Plant-based substitutes sales are sliding across the board. The biggest lesson may be not to allow ourselves to be fooled again by the fantasies of consulting firms and university researchers. Time: 20 minutes

    PepsiCo embraces (grass-fed) meat as animal protein powers on

    No-one predicted that meat snacks would become one of the biggest and fastest-growing categories in the American supermarket, totally aligned with the needs of the health-conscious consumer. Nor did anyone imagine that "grass-fed" would be one of the messages that some consumers would value most, alongside the word "protein". Demand for grass-fed is quietly growing. Sales of grass-fed beef in the US are measured in billions and were up  35% last year. So perhaps it's no surprise that PepsiCo is getting into the grass-fed beef snack business. OK, so at NNB we did in fact predict, back in 2020, that meat snacks would grow, so we're taking a lap for that one. But we didn't get the PepsiCo prediction.   Time: 14 minutes

    A "real foods" idea breaks out into Trader Joe's and CostCo

    Long overlooked as a wacky concept that was only successful in Australia and China, A2 dairy is breaking out. A2 is showing up in mainstream supermarkets from LA to Barcelona, in foodservice and now in one of Nestlé's biggest brands in Asia. A2's "feel the benefit" effect for people who want digestive wellness, plus its heritage of "farming as it used to be" and its "real food" identity are a powerful combination which is driving change and 30% annual sales growth.

    New directions will keep the protein trend powering on

    Consumer interest in dairy protein emerged among gym-goers in the 1990s and became mass-market 7 years ago. In this podcast, we introduce two emergent strategies from our annual 10 Key Trends report that explain why consumer demand for dairy protein will keep growing for many years to come. One strategy is protein quality, an idea that's unknown to consumers but it is dairy's untapped competitive advantage. Danone, Meijiand Nestlé are leading the charge in Asia, introducing the message of protein quality tothe influential sports and fitness consumers. The other is creatine, a long-established, science-backed sports supplement now crossing over into foods, with emerging benefits for muscle, energy and cognition. Pioneering brands are blending creatine and high-quality protein. Opportunities for innovation will surge. Time: 25 minutes

    How to successfully meet the nutritional needs of GLP-1 drug users and keep your sanity and your cash-flow intact

    We made this podcast to help food producers work out how to meet the needs of people using GLP-1a drugs. It goes past the hype that you hear from consulting firms. We explore the nuances and show what you can do to reduce your risks (and the risks are real) using real-world examples. It also covers: 1. Why GLP-1 is one of only six drivers changing people's consumption habits (and not the most important one) 2. Which categories are struggling and which are growing. 3. Why GLP-1a may decline from where it is and how to manage that risk so that your business still survives and thrives.   Time: 28 minutes.

    Is nutrition and health the Achilles-heel of animal-free dairy proteins?

    Billions of dollars have been invested by companies using precision fermentation to make "animal-free" dairy proteins in a factory. Around 40 companies are aiming to replace large parts of the dairy industry and they claim that their alt proteins behave in the same way in the human body as real dairy proteins. However, a recently published scientific study suggest that these animal-free proteins in fact don't. They may have a different effect on the gut and immunity. Meanwhile no alt protein company has been able to produce a single study that backs up their claim of equivalence to the natural dairy matrix.   Time: 16 minutes

    The unstoppable rise of "grass-fed" dairy and meat

    For a growing number of consumers "grass-fed" is one of the strongest health and sustainability messages. So it's no surprise that demand for foods from grass-fed sources is growing steadily. In the US, for example, sales of grass-fed meat are three times those of the much-hyped plant-based substitutes and grew by 31% last year. And at least one former vegan ice cream brand is now thriving by offering grass-fed dairy ice cream. If you are thinking about the future of food, this development and what it says about humans is one you have to understand. Time: 25 minutes

    A small cup of coffee history

    Our first podcast about food history. Why history? Because if you're involved in producing food and in innovation, it's good to have a handle on the history of food and the timeless lessons about humans that food history can teach us - and that we can still apply today.   Time: 15 minutes
