FDA issues salt-substitute rule for standardised foods
The general effective date is 14 December 2026. A dairy-specific objection provision means product teams still need to check which amendment applies.

What would make continuous fermentation a better business?
ECOFERM sets a research direction. A commercial comparison still needs campaign reliability, recovery, quality and a clear cost boundary.

What can a GLP-1 shopping basket tell a product team?
Purchase composition, intake and product use answer different questions. Use Danish receipt research to frame the next test.

Before buying an AI formulation tool, choose the comparison
A new human-AI food study illustrates why the method comparison and product comparison belong on separate lines in an R&D trial.

GLP-1 food: start with what people actually eat
Your formula can hit its protein target while the product misses the eating occasion. Here is the question I would put at the top of the brief.

Can your plant-based team turn texture data into a better product?
Instrument readings, consumer preference and manufacturing performance answer different questions. The organisational test is whether the team can connect them and act on the result.

What belongs in a sensory data room?
A practical guide to taste, texture, consumer language and repeat-purchase evidence. See which claims each kind of evidence can support.

Analysis
How much protein reaches the end of the recovery train?
A hypothetical five-stage mass balance connects recovery losses to the ingredient a customer can accept and the cost model behind it.
For R&D teamsCheck the evidence before applying it.
- Find the source
- Start with the original paper, its research question and study design.
- Check its strength
- Look for limitations and unanswered questions. Association does not establish causation.
- Test the application
- A laboratory result can inform a product brief. It does not establish commercial readiness.
