On the surface, new
Hillshire 'Tub' of meat a good idea, but ...
 Look,
I love the idea of the new Hillshire Farm Family Size Lunchmeat Tubs,
but why the typical resealable top? Why not a plastic cover that just
snaps over the container, similar to how it's done with products like
Cool Whip. To me, that would've said something 'unique' to the
consumer, suggesting a faster, easier way to get to the meat. I suppose
I'm nit-picking here because I really do like this product. I just think
another step might've been taken to make these tubs stand out from
traditional resealable meat packaging. The tub is cool but the
resealable top is redundant in a category that could use a little
'fresh' thinking. I'm pretty sure Sara Lee would take issue with my
perspective, but I feel like too many new product concepts simply don't
try hard enough to wow consumers with packaging that communicates a
whole new way of looking at a category. Of course, Sara Lee is worth
billions and I can't afford a trip around the block, so what do I know?

Ag
industry defends itself over grisly
chick video
Images in video
aren't pretty, but industry groups say chicks die instantly
Business Week Paul Lasley cringed when he
heard about an undercover
video showing unwanted chicks being tossed alive into a grinder at an Iowa
hatchery. The images were
upsetting, to be sure, but as someone who grew up on a farm, Lasley knows that
bringing meat and poultry to America's dinner table is often a grisly business
..... Animal rights groups, for their part, say the industry needs to change its
ways and treat chickens, hogs, cattle and other animals with more care.
Link.
Bob's Spin:
Here's the problem for the ag industry now that a Vegan group has released the
secretly-recorded video
most Americans think baby chicks are cute as can be. So it's difficult to
watch this video as the new-born chicks tumble into the grinder, and it may
force the industry to figure out a new way to manage the unwanted male chicks.
Whether we like it or not, the food industry's slaughtering practices are now
out in the public domain and you can't expect the American people not to have an
adverse reaction to what they are witnessing.

Americans Dont Know Theyre
unhealthy, says Mintel
Survey:
Americans have unrealistic perception of their health and are particularly
unaware of their weight problems
Food Navigator More than two-thirds of
Americans are overweight or obese, says the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, and seeking ways to tackle obesity has become a top priority for US
health authorities, as overweight people are at significantly higher risk of
developing hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular disease ..... Senior
analyst at Mintel Krista Faron told FoodNavigator-USA.com: I think there is
just a tremendous amount of self-deception. At the core, very few people want to
admit they are not healthy.

U. of
Illinois Researcher Petitions to Ban Trans Fats in the Diet
Kumerow:
Everybody should read my petition because it will scare the hell out of them
HealthJockey.com Dieticians may find this
piece of news quite interesting. Fred Kummerow (pictured), a 94 year-old
University of Illinois veterinary biosciences professor emeritus, still known to
carry out research on the health effects of trans fats in the diet, filed a
petition with the FDA last month. This petition aims at eradicating trans fats
from food ..... Kummerow is of the opinion that the FDA's requirement, which
began in 2006, that trans fats to be included on food labels, may be inadequate
and deceptive.

Top Consumer Trends: Trust, Control ...
Playfulness?
While
people "still feel pessimistic," there's plenty of evidence that they are
lightening their mood as often as possible
Marketing Daily, UK Oh, it's so nice to be
right. When market researcher Mintel released its list of leading consumer
prognostication late last year, it knew that financial worries would drag
consumers' emotions down for much of the year, and put the spotlight on trading
down and switching brands. But now that its data from the first six months of
the year is available, the company has taken another look at its forecast.

FDA Confirms Pepsis Frogtastrophe
Dead
frog found in soda can tarnishes brand image
Progressive Grocer A dead frog found in a
Diet Pepsi can in Florida has quickly become an international topic of
discussion. But Pepsi has not yet leapt to stifle the scandals digital sprawl.
PepsiCo still had not issued a public response to the incident on the company
Web site as of Friday, though Pepsi spokesman Jeff Dahncke reportedly said
yesterday that the Orlando bottling facility that produced the can had been
subsequently inspected by the FDA.

Why do these
activists have no qualms about abusing the legal system to push their agendas?
The self-anointed "food police" at CSPI think that they know what's best for
everyone, and that means you and me. CSPI folks believe they are their brother's
keeper; the problem is that they are a very big brother in the Orwellian sense.

Nearly a third of Americans very or extremely
worried about food safety
As
a high profile food safety bill awaits consideration in the Senate, a new survey
shows the number of Americans who are very or extremely concerned about food
safety has remained constant since late 2007 at about a third ..... The
research organization said that proportions of those who are or are not worried
about food safety have stayed more or less the same over the past two years,
although there have been spikes of concern around high profile food recalls and
multi-state foodborne illness outbreaks. On average, only 11 to 13 percent of
those surveyed said they were not at all concerned about food safety.

Humane slaughtering spearheads China's drive to
promote animal welfare
It's
a slaughterhouse, but not one where there's a great deal of squealing and
struggling. Bathed in melodious music, freshly showered, a row of pigs strolls
towards their fate one by one. Their heads are put into special helmets and they
are stunned into unconsciousness before killing. The two-second electric shock
gives the pigs no time for fear or distress, and ensures they don't feel any
pain during slaughter. "We call this 'mercy killing,'" said Liu Zhenli,
manager of the meat department of the Longda Foodstuff Group Co., Ltd. in
east China's Shandong Province, the country's largest prepared foods exporter
..... Longda's practice epitomizes a growing trend in China's large-scale
slaughterhouses where animal welfare is being given increasing attention. Their
welfare is usually interpreted as the right for animals to be free from thirst
and hunger, discomfort; pain, injury, and disease; and free from fear and
distress as well as being free to behave normally.
