Ingredion Idea Labs

Recent research has uncovered that consumers fall into one of four categories of eating style - crunchers, chewers, smooshers or suckers.

According to the research, chewers enjoy a prolonged chewing action, crunchers like the sound and feeling of a hard bite, smooshers enjoy manipulating soft food in their mouths, and suckers enjoy extracting as much flavour as possible.

We can help food companies use these findings to improve formulations and their front-of-pack messaging. By understanding each eating style, manufacturers can develop more successful products. In this webinar, we focus on yoghurts to show you how you can use these innovative insights.

In this webinar, you’ll learn about:
•The importance of Sensory Experience to consumers
•The differences in eating styles
•New consumers insights in yoghurts which you can use to develop your products
•Ingredion’s texture capabilities and expertise

Research shows that today’s consumers want great-tasting foods and beverages that offer enhanced nutrition and clean labels. They’re also looking for plant-based protein and sustainably sourced ingredients. Pulses help you meet these hot consumer trends—and we see their use in formulations skyrocketing. But when should you leverage their natural, beany flavor profile and when should you choose a clean-taste version? Get consumer insights and formulation tips in this pulse-focused webinar.

The trend toward clean and simple is now global and a major challenge for processed food manufacturers, but the indicators used to analyze the trend can be misleading. Drawing on deep consumer and manufacturer research, this webinar addresses what “clean label” and “simple label” really mean for consumers, how the two terms differ, and how we can most effectively market them.
