  • 580: Rethinking alternative proteins

    580: Rethinking alternative proteins
    Oct 13 2025
    Can we really convert industrial CO2 emissions into complete nutrition without using any fertile land?

    As deforestation claims a forest area the size of 18 football fields every minute to meet food and feed demands, the search for genuinely sustainable protein sources has never been more urgent.

    In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded at our event in Rotterdam in September 2025, three experts reveal radically different approaches to solving the alternative protein challenge - from breathing cultivation systems to the nuanced reality of ultra-processed plant-based meat.

    We discover how technological advances are putting microalgae at the centre of the alternative protein conversation, we delve into the debate around ultra-processed foods, and the hidden challenge: even the most sustainable ingredient innovation can fail if supply chain realities aren't considered from day one.

    From multifunctional water-soluble proteins that foam better than egg, to understanding why Swiss soybean variety selection requires bringing farmers and industry together early, our guests argue that alternative protein success depends on looking beyond the ingredient itself to the entire value chain and evolving consumer priorities.

  • 579: Balancing health, cost and taste in food manufacturing

    579: Balancing health, cost and taste in food manufacturing
    Oct 6 2025
    How can food manufacturers simultaneously make products healthier, more affordable, more sustainable, and maintain great taste - all whilst the regulatory landscape is shifting?

    The food industry has a rich history of adaptation, navigating everything from global crises, evolving regulatory landscapes, and consumer preferences.

    And it looks like that adaptability trait is going to need to continue for the foreseeable future, with the UK's new 10-year health plan and evolving HFSS guidelines creating a “perfect storm” for manufacturers.

    In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, made in partnership with Kerry, we explore how the industry can navigate these challenges without compromising on consumer appeal.

    History tells us the food industry is good at this stuff, so perhaps what’s on the horizon is more of an opportunity than a challenge.

  • 578: Where do consumers stand on gut health?

    578: Where do consumers stand on gut health?
    Sep 29 2025
    Is gut health still a top priority for consumers? We know that awareness continues to rise, but there's evidence that fewer people are actually taking action when it comes to their diets.

    In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded at our event in Manchester in May 2025, we explore how the gut health conversation needs to evolve beyond traditional disease management messaging.

    We hear how stressed, burnt-out consumers are shifting focus from long-term health goals to immediate quality-of-life concerns like energy, mood, and sleep - creating an opportunity to reframe gut health benefits around these daily wellness priorities.

    We also explore the critical but underexplored connection between gut health and menopause, explaining how the "estrobolome" - specific gut bacteria that metabolise estrogen - could be key to managing menopausal symptoms.

    From the challenge of making fibre "aspirational" like protein has become, to understanding why post-menopausal women's microbiomes become more similar to men's, our experts reveal why the gut health industry must pivot its messaging.

    Can brands successfully connect the dots between digestive wellness and the energy, mood, and stress management that consumers desperately need?
