McVeggie Launch: Future of Plant-Based Food in Canada?
Just as Yves Veggie Cuisine announces its discontinuation, a McDonald’s vegetarian sandwich has officially launched across Canada. Will Canadians bite, or pass it by?
“Research shows that many Canadian consumers are more open to transitioning toward plant-based protein diets, though they often demand higher quality and transparency,” says Dr. Sadaf Mollaei, the Arrell Chair in the Business of Food in the Gordon S. Lang School of Business and Economics.
Mollaei is a University of Guelph professor in the School of Hospitality, Food and Tourism Management who studies sustainable food systems, consumer behaviour, marketing and decision-making in relation to sustainable food choices.
“The discontinuation of a legacy brand like Yves likely signals ‘plant-based’ is no longer sufficient,” Mollaei says. “Instead, the future will favour plant-based products and brands that can deliver on consumer values, like flavour, affordability, lower processing and demonstrable safety.”
Just 4 Days of Junk Food Can Rewire Your Brain’s Memory Center
A high-fat diet quickly disrupts neurons tied to memory, but restoring glucose or dietary changes can repair the damage. These findings may guide strategies to reduce dementia risk.
Diet impacts the brain a lot more than we think.
A study conducted by researchers at the UNC School of Medicine, recently published in Neuron, shows how diets high in junk food can rapidly alter the brain’s memory center, increasing the likelihood of cognitive impairment. The findings point to new opportunities for early interventions that could help prevent lasting memory decline linked to obesity.
