The robots are coming! Well, in food and beverage processing, robotics and automation are already here, sure — but what we see today pales in comparison to what the future may hold. Berk Pehlivanoglu and Ozan Ozaskinli of Value Gene Consulting Group join the Food For Thought podcast to talk about an in-depth report their firm released in January, titled “How Humanoids Will Reshape Food Manufacturing.” Ozaskinli and Pehlivanoglu talk about the humanoid robots currently in development, the shortcomings of the technology at the moment, the projected total cost of ownership of humanoids for food processors, and the technological advancement still needed to reach reliable use in food processing. And, they say, food processors should begin to think about how to capitalize on this innovation now — because implementation of humanoids in food and beverage processing isn't as far away as some might think.

In this episode of Food for Thought Leadership, Rebecca Fryer sits down with William Grand, founder and CEO of NutriFusion, to examine the growing health crisis tied to ultra-processed foods—and what it will take to fix it. Grand shares striking data on American eating habits, including the overwhelming reliance on ultra-processed products and the widespread deficiency in fruit and vegetable consumption. He argues that while consumer education is essential, meaningful progress may ultimately require federal legislation, clearer front-of-pack labeling, and even policy tools like sugar taxes to shift behavior at scale. The conversation also explores the evolving food pyramid, the global differences in food systems, and the role manufacturers can play in reformulating everyday staples. Grand explains how NutriFusion works with brands across categories—from snack bars to mac and cheese—to restore nutrients lost in modern processing without compromising taste or texture. Looking ahead, he outlines a vision for a more transparent, nutrient-dense food system—one where better formulation, smarter policy, and informed consumers work together to improve public health outcomes. More About William Grand: Bill Grand has over 40 years' experience in corporate management, sales and marketing. Areas of expertise include food retail, distribution, product development, logistics and administration. Formerly President of Mackay Specialties, a manufacturing business providing health and beauty products to retail customers in Canada and the US.

More than 7.4 million adults age 60 and older in the United States are food insecure, yet nearly half of those who qualify for nutrition assistance never receive it. For many older adults, the choice is not between healthy food options—but between food, housing, medication, and basic survival.In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong is joined by Drs. Colleen Heflin and Madonna Harrington Meyer, co-authors of the new book Food for Thought. Drawing on powerful stories and rigorous data, they unpack the realities of food insecurity among older adults, the barriers that prevent access to programs like SNAP, and why current systems often fail the very people they are designed to support.They explore how hunger accelerates chronic disease, threatens independence, and undermines the core goal of aging well—autonomy. As policymakers debate funding and reform, this conversation brings clarity to what those decisions mean on the ground and what must change if we are serious about supporting healthy aging in our communities.Learn more about Drs.

Rocco Renaldi, secretary-general of the International Food & Beverage Alliance (IFBA), returns to the Food For Thought podcast to discuss the various ways in which snack foods have gotten more nutritious for consumers, often discreetly and without much fanfare over the years. Certainly, snack processors have made headline-worthy changes as well, and those are expected to continue as pressures continue to influence product formulation and composition. As consumers demand more nutritious options, these companies continue to develop and seek solutions to meet those demands.

Send us a textGet ready to nerd out with your favourite podcast hosts in this Food for Thought episode! Erin explores a study showing that early humans were eating carbs before their teeth were able to chew them. What impact did the food early humans ate have on the teeth we have today? The carbohydrates (grains) available at the time required a lot of chewing, which means these early humans recognized this as a high-energy food source, despite not having teeth to properly chew them. The study shows it actually took about 700,000 more years before the size and shape of human teeth were actually suited to eating this food. Cool, right? Erin, with her background in science, helps tell the story of this research by explaining evolution. Then she goes down a bit of a rabbit hole about wisdom teeth and changes we see in present day humans and our teeth and jaws today. Learn more in the studies Erin has referenced in this episode: How Human Diet Influenced Evolutionary Changes in our TeethWhy we Have so Many Problems with our Wisdom TeethWisdom Teeth and Genetics: Why Some People do not Have Wisdom Teeth Three Kitchens Podcast - a home cooking showCheck out our website where you can listen to all of our episodes and find recipes on our blog: www.threekitchenspodcast.comYou can support the show with a small donation at Buy Me A Coffee.Want to be a guest?
