According to Denise Purcell, head of content for the Specialty Food Association, \u201cMacro trends like sustainability and health are converging in the 2018 [food] trends.\u201d This combination will create food trends including more plant-based foods, upcycled edible products, and healthy alternative sweeteners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Plant-Based Foods<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gone are the days when plant-based foods were only found in out of the way health food stores. Today, plant-based options are endless and can be found everywhere from the local grocery store to the office break room <a href=\"https:\/\/southwestvending.com\/vending.php\">vending machine<\/a>. Scottsdale consumers are likely to find a wide variety of plant-based options including dairy-free milk products such as cheese or yogurt; frozen desserts such as ice cream or whipped topping; and convenience foods such as crackers, cereals, cookies, bean chips, premade burritos, and protein bars. Below are a few of the plant ingredients found in <a href=\"https:\/\/southwestvending.com\/healthy.php\">healthy snacks<\/a> and beverages that consumers will enjoy more of in 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dairy-free alternatives: almonds, coconuts, cashews, soy, and rice <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pulses: beans, lentils, chickpeas, and peas<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vegetables: beets, sweet potatoes, kale, tomatoes, and corn \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ancient grains: quinoa, spelt, amaranth, kamut, and farro<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">protein-rich seeds: hemp, chia, and flax<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Upcycled Edibles<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forty percent of the food produced in the United States is thrown away each year. That is equivalent to $165 billion of food. Upcycled dishes have already made appearances in home kitchens and restaurants. As Scottsdale consumers develop a better understanding of this problem, prepackaged upcycled products made from ingredients and scraps that would have otherwise been discarded, will increase in availability. Several snacks and <a href=\"https:\/\/southwestvending.com\/beverages.php\">beverages<\/a> that are already available include<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pressed juice made from imperfect fruit <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">chips made from fruit pulp<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">snack bars made from spent grain from the beer making process<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">condiments including chutney and chilis made from ugly produce<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hot-on-the-go oatmeal made with the coffee fruit<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-98\" src=\"https:\/\/southwestvending.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/AdobeStock_36796322-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"Healthy Break Room Snacks and Beverages in Scottsdale\" width=\"993\" height=\"659\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southwestvending.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/AdobeStock_36796322-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/southwestvending.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/AdobeStock_36796322-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/southwestvending.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/AdobeStock_36796322-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/southwestvending.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/AdobeStock_36796322.jpg 1715w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 993px) 100vw, 993px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Alternative Sweeteners<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sugar.
