NEW YORK, Feb. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In 2022, we saw food, health and wellness trends come in and out of style faster than ever, thanks to TikTok microtrends like balsamic vinegar soda, cloud bread and butter boards. But after years of keeping immune health and comfort top-of-mind during the COVID-19 pandemic, consumers are back to prioritizing affordability and convenience when shopping for food, according to the annual Pollock Communications and Today's Dietitian "What's Trending in Nutrition" survey. With 757 registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) responding, the "What's Trending in Nutrition" survey reveals insights from nutrition experts on what they believe consumers will value in 2023, their top concerns when grocery shopping, and their top ten superfood predictions.

Key Points: 
  • The COVID-19 pandemic ushered in a focus on "food as medicine," with consumers shopping for foods that support immunity and provide comfort.
  • But as consumers navigate the cost-of-living crisis, RDNs predict that affordability will be a higher priority than immunity for the first time since the onset of the pandemic.
  • With higher costs of groceries top of mind, consumers will be looking for functional, value-based foods that support their immunity and gut health.
  • Today's Dietitian is also a leading producer of accredited continuing education opportunities for these practitioners.
