Second Quarter 2021 Report
As consumers reach for new heights of physical and mental health and function, an evolved market of supercharged health food and drink is taking center stage. This new generation of quasi-medicinal snacks is pushing the boundaries of health benefits as well as taste, texture, and the eating experience.
