Mother Nature Knows Best

Today, we are more deliberate than ever when making our food choices. We ask more questions about the food on our plate. We want to know where it comes from, how it is made and what is in it.

Mother Nature (content)

The variety of information that we are exposed to can create confusion about what is good and nutritious, what is best for our well-being, what is best for the planet.

In the midst of this complexity, we, consumers of today, want simple answers.

We turn to where we come from: Mother Nature.

Natural is here to stay

“Natural” is here to stay

“Natural” is closely associated with simplicity. It is aligned with the ingredients in a food product. By consumers, “natural” is seen as*:

  • 100 % from nature – 44 %

  • Healthy – 43 %

Given the rapid and widespread expansion of “back to nature” within the last decades, it is more of a movement than a passing fad. It is rather a lifestyle than a trend. It is here to stay**.
