How do we decide what to eat every day? Most of us would probably say that we consider our health when we’re selecting food. But our food choices are also influenced by how much time and money we have, as well as intangibles like our cultural heritage and emotions.
Americans toss out, on average, 72 billion pounds of safe, edible food each year. Around 52 billion of those pounds flow from manufacturers, restaurants, and grocery stores into landfill. Feeding America, a nationwide network of over 200 food banks, has developed a new tech platform called MealConnect to intercept some of that trash-destined food and divert it toward the one in eight food-insecure people in the United States.
Everyone wants to ensure food is safe, accessible, nutritious, and available for all. At General Mills, that responsibility is at the heart of much of what we do.

Kernza is the product of years of plant breeding at The Land Institute, an independent, nonprofit research institute in Salina, Kansas. The Land Institute, a recent McKnight grantee, envisions developing an array of perennial grain crops that could be planted in mixtures to mimic native prairies. If the effort is successful, Midwest agriculture could feed consumers while generating clean water and healthy soil.
Sodexo partners with our K-12 school partners and external organizations to share our industry experience and best practices to drive fundamental change on the issue of food waste.

The recent years have seen a major shift in people's relationship with food and drink, which have acquired a much more funcional role in our lives. Like in other sectors, data is key and the public want as much information as possible to make a purchasing decision. For that reason, the food and beverage industries have to adapt to cater to new demands and needs, lest they could fall lag behind.
