Top 100 Food Trends in 2019

The 2019 food trends highlight unconventional products that are inspired by unique flavor innovations or cutting-edge tech enhancements. An example of the latter would be the Gotouchi no KitKat Pairing Bar pop-up which utilizes artificial intelligence to pair chocolate with sake, making for an exciting and one-of-a-kind experience. Another activation harnesses robotics — the Wilkinson Baking BreadBot was unveiled at CES 2019. The innovation can mix, form, proof, bake, and cool bread. It relies on an entirely automated mechanism.

In terms of flavor and presentation, the 2019 food trends boasts some surprising examples. Koike-Ya is a Tokyo-based brand that reimagines the way one consumes potato chips. The method keeps your hands free of grease as the contents of the bag come pre-mashed and one can actually drink the chips on-the-go.
