477: Can (re)formulation save us?

The food landscape is undergoing huge change, with one of the main driving forces being a pursuit of more sustainable solutions. One key area of focus is reformulation - can we use different ingredients to make products that are healthy, tastey and attractive to consumers? This episode of the Food Matters Live podcast was recorded in front of a live audience during our Sustainable Food Forum event, held in London in September 2023. Our panel discusses some of the new and innovative ways to disrupt and improve food production without putting further pressure on the environment.  They celebrate the progress so far and explore what is coming next.  So, can reformulation be the innovation to reduce emissions of existing food products rather than relying on a shift to plant based alternatives?  And how do you embed sustainability into every phase of product development?
