April 1, 2026 — The updated Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) have seafood companies and representative groups working to capitalize on new marketing and sales opportunities for the category.
The new guidelines feature an inverted food pyramid prominently showcasing seafood and a recommendation that Americans eat at least three servings of seafood weekly, compared to the previous recommendation of two servings.
January 2, 2025 — U.S. consumer interest in nutrition and dietary trends have spiked, and one macronutrient has taken center stage: protein.
There is perhaps no place that reflects this trend more than American snack aisles. Food products traditionally low in protein like cereal, oatmeal, pancakes, cookies, and snack mix now boast of containing protein levels of 20 grams or more on the front of their packaging. Over the past decade, research shows that the number of high-protein products has increased fourfold, expanding from predominantly animal-based sources to plant-based sources of protein.
