Crystalline Seasoning

Consumers embrace pink Himalayan salt as a healthful flavor enhancer

Implications - As consumers look for healthy alternatives that replicate familiar flavors, many have embraced pink Himalayan salt as an at-home culinary staple and premium ingredient that serves as an indicator of quality in packaged food and beverage products. Prized for its pollution-free origins as well as its therapeutic benefits, the mainstream acceptance of the ingredient has become intertwined with consumer expectations related to wellness and flavor. This progression falls in line with the consumer willingness to spend more on premium ingredients that enhance familiar dishes without offsetting one's healthy lifestyle.
Workshop Question - How can you incorporate premiumization in surprising ways to enhance consumer experience?
Trend Themes
1. Pink Himalayan Salt Trend - As consumers increasingly seek healthy and premium ingredients, pink Himalayan salt has become an at-home culinary staple and premium ingredient that serves as an indicator of quality in packaged food and beverage products.
2. Superfood Blends Trend - The increased focus on healthy living has led to consumers' adoption of superfood blends and their perceived benefits such as healthier skin, increased energy and more focus.
3. Organic and Natural Snack Trend - In response to increased concerns about artificial ingredients and preservatives, many consumers are seeking healthier snacks, such as organic and all-natural crackers, popcorn, and crisps.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage Industry - This industry can capitalize on the Pink Himalayan Salt and Superfood Blends trends by creating products that cater to consumers' increasing demand for healthy and premium ingredients.
