Topical Currents

Fancy Food Show 2017

(7-27-2017) This week’s Food News and Views: What’s New from the Fancy Food Show.  Linda talks about new food trends and brings in her favorite picks to taste.

Snacks are always big at the show and growing – baked popcorn is a hit.

Wellness and plant based foods another big trend– purple tea and Renew Drinkable Veggies with bone broth. 

And why is pickle juice on the list?

There are lots of indulgences, too.  Many have a special message.  Chocolate Fudge Brownies from a company whose motto is no questions asked, “We make brownies to hire people.”

Laine Doss, Miami New Times Food Editor gives her restaurant suggestions.
