Brazen Home-Cooked

A surprising element is added to unexpected places in home-cooked cuisine

Implications - The credit crunch caused more and more consumers to opt for at-home cuisine in favor of restaurant meals. Now, consumers are growing bored with the tried and tested flavors of traditional homecooked meals, instead opting for combinations of staples found in the standard kitchen. This brazen attitude toward comfort food thus allows a means of expression and experimentation that doesn't stray too far from the familiar.
Trend Themes
1. Experimental Home Cooking - Consumers are opting for new and unique flavor combinations in traditional home-cooked meals
2. Cross-cultural Fusion - Merging cultural and taste differences to create new and delicious food experiences
3. Innovative Ingredients - Incorporating unconventional ingredients to create unexpected flavor combinations in popular dishes
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - Exploring new and unique recipes and flavor combinations is necessary for staying ahead in this industry
2. Hospitality - Innovative and unique dishes can differentiate a restaurant from its competition in the highly competitive hospitality space
3. Consumer Goods - Experimenting with new food products could open new markets and niches within the consumer goods market
