Great post from Peter here...and in some ways, everything old is new again. What I love about traveling to places like southeast Asia and even parts of Europe are the "specialty" food service institutions: those places that do "one thing" - but do it exceptionally well. In the USA, we traded the specialty shops of butchers and bakers etc. for the "convenience" of the supermarket and then the superstores - as pre-pandemic capitalism and legacy distribution networks made it hard for focused providers of perishables (or anything!) to survive. In a post-pandemic world, we are seeing an interesting amalgamation of large scale retailers like Amazon and specialty web-based services and apps make it easier for people to "shop small" and support more focused manufacturers and food services. All good to see :)

Coffee Tip of the Week - Only Buy Coffee w/ Roast Date on the Bag The problem with buying coffee from supermarkets is that beans will sit there for months after their roast date, assuming the vacuum-sealed bags even mention a roast date. Many bags will provide only a “use by” or “best by” date, which may promise that the coffee will be good for months into the future. This is technically true, as you can brew coffee many months after its roast date, and it will still taste like coffee. It won’t harm you, but it won’t taste as it should. Bottom line: look for roast dates, and buy coffee that has been roasted within two weeks of your purchase. If the beans were roasted several weeks (or many months) earlier, find a different bag. Or, better yet, buy your beans at AltruisticJoe.com & your beans will be freshly roasted right before they ship with the date clearly stamped on every bag! That’s our tip of the week - Cheers! #altruisticjoe #coffee #coffeetime #coffeeshop #espresso #barista #coffeelovers #coffeegram #specialtycoffee #coffeecompany #smallbusiness #tipsandtricks #coffeetips

For those who love food, the combination of crispy fries and a refreshing cola is more than just a meal choice. It's a symbol of comfort, a classic duo that brings back memories and a sense of contentment. When you've had a #Coke from #McDonald's with your #BigMac and fries, you might have noticed it tastes different than a can or bottle bought elsewhere. It's not unusual to think this way – there's a reason that clarifies the taste mystery we've wondered about for years. But the explanation is not what you might expect. Every aspect of the process, from the storage containers for #CocaCola syrup to the choice of straws, has a purpose. To understand this better, let's return to when the fast-food chain first teamed up with the #drinks company. Coca-Cola's introduction to the McDonald's menu in the 1950s marked the inception of a unique #collaboration that birthed distinctive processes exclusive to the chain's operations. Over time, these processes have evolved into ten distinct factors that explain the divergence in the product's taste when served within the #GoldenArches compared to elsewhere. The first differentiation is that McDonald's Coke isn't pre-mixed like canned drinks.  Read here: https://bitly.ws/T7J8

It's Friday night, so families everywhere are managing "What's for dinner?" Here at the Beasley abode, we are taking up the The Fresh Market Pizza Challenge! Kevin Miller and Giorgio Bianchetti Gonzalez are making great strides on dinner solutions and now they're aiming to crush the pizza business. As highly qualified taste testers who have sampled pizza around the world, we went for it. We had zero wait time at the counter and ordering was a breeze. Pizza cooked while I got grocery shopping done and the associate came and found me when it was ready (excellent service!). We got the car loaded and the car was flooded with amazing smells that were too much for hungry appetites. The kids couldn't wait the 35 minute drive home and I let them nosh away in the backseat. It was truly delicious - crispy crust, fantastic assortment of cheeses, and just the right amount of sauce...all for $12.99. Roughly what I'd pay for a far inferior frozen pizza that still needs to be cooked. This was the best pizza I've had from a grocery store ever and better than any other chain, hands down...and the kids loved it. Other grocery chains should listen up and go try it. Whole Foods is working on price image but Fresh Foods is actually doing it while making food that eats extremely well.

Which sounds better...? "A mix of Napa cabbage, green cabbage, kale, broccoli stems, and carrots. Shredded Cheddar cheese, crispy onions, dill and mustard crouton crumbles, and crispy fries, with a creamy burger sauce dressing." OR "Better than a Burger Salad Kit." This salad kit caught my eye in the refrigerated section of Costco Wholesale over the weekend. “As consumers continue to look for delicious and innovative food products, we’re excited to offer them a fun and unique salad kit based around one of America’s favorite meals — the burger and fries.” (Karl Lipscomb, product development manager, Gold Coast Packing, Inc.) As a longtime Costco shopper, I bring a list of rebuy items - like Kodiak Cakes pancake mix, Vita Coco coconut water, and Kirkland Signature diapers...so, so many diapers. But I also discover new items each time - either via sampling or how the items present on shelves. TRUFF (truffle-infused hot sauce), for example, caught my eye among many other sauces sold at Costco with its clean, modern packaging. (And of course the mental math of, How long will it take me to actually finish this???) So, while Karl might have known he had a hit on his hands with this salad kit, the messaging and packaging is critical to how well it'll sell next to five other salad kits I see every time I go to Costco. When was the last time a clever piece of messaging and/or packaging in-store caught your eye? #advertisingandmarketing #marketing #branding #food
