MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s new president announced an agriculture plan Tuesday that could make the country’s food production and distribution look a lot more like it did in the 1980s, when meals in Mexico were dominated by tortillas, beans, instant coffee and cheap hot chocolate.

Four decades ago, the ingredients for those meals were often bought at government stores that stocked a few basic goods.

President Claudia Sheinbaum pledged Tuesday to revive those often shabby, limited government stores and continue efforts to achieve “food sovereignty.”

“It is about producing what we eat,” Sheinbaum said of her policy, whose main focus will be on increasing bean and corn production.

Sheinbaum appears to have a deep interest in boosting beans. On Monday, she said, “It is much better to eat a bean taco than a bag of potato chips."

Agriculture Secretary Julio Berdegué said the focus would be on guaranteeing prices for farmers who grow corn used for tortillas and lowering tortilla prices by 10% after prices jumped a couple of years ago.

The government aims to boost bean production by about 30% in six years to replace imports of beans, and will set up research centers to supply higher-yielding bean seeds.

“Self-sufficiency in beans is a goal the president has set for us,” Berdegué said.

The government will also focus on supporting coffee production, but mainly for instant coffee, which it claims is used by 84% of Mexican households. The plan will also seek to support cocoa production, but mainly for powdered baking and hot chocolate, not fine chocolate bars.

The policies appear to run counter to market trends and what Mexican food sales look like today, when consumption of most of the old basics has fallen.

Most Mexicans today shop at modern grocery stores, and consumption of fresh ground coffee, not instant, has increased enormously, accompanied by a boom in specialized coffee chains and shops.

Meanwhile, bean consumption has been dropping precipitously for decades in Mexico. According to the government's “2024 Agricultural Panorama” report, Mexicans consume only about 17 pounds (7.7 kilograms) of beans annually. That's less than half of the 35.2 pounds (16 kilograms) consumed per year in 1980.

A combination of factors, including the time it takes to cook dried beans, may be behind this. Amanda Gálvez, a researcher at Mexico's National Autonomous University, wrote that “we look down at beans because it is considered ‘the food of the poor,’ and we are making a serious mistake,” because beans are a good source of protein.

However, the health benefits aren't clear: The most common bean recipe in Mexico — refried beans — often contains a considerable dose of lard.

Tortilla consumption has also fallen from nearly 220 pounds (100 kilograms) per capita annually in 2000 to about 165 pounds (75 kilograms) in 2024. Consumers have increasingly taken to buying bread and other bakery products instead of tortillas.

Apart from the challenge of trying to change consumer habits, the policy also runs counter to market trends. While some countries are trying to encourage high-value varietal and specialized chocolate strains, Mexico is focusing on the cheapest products.

While chocolate was first exported to the rest of the world from Mexico, Mexico's own production has fallen dramatically because of plant diseases and a lack of investment. It dropped from almost 50,000 tons in 2003 to about 28,000 tons in 2022.

And while most Mexican homes may have a jar of instant coffee in their cupboards, that's not where the tendency — or consumer spending — is headed. According to a Technavio industry report, instant products accounted for only about 37% of the sales value of coffee in Mexico.

Sheinbaum's focus on self-sufficiency in oil, energy and foodstuffs is a holdover from her predecessor and political mentor, former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who left office on Sept. 30.

López Obrador also appears to have passed on his nostalgia for a 1970s-style Mexico — including passenger rail service, state-owned industries, tight-knit families and small corner stores — to Sheinbaum.

The agriculture plan comes one day after Sheinbaum announced a complete “junk food” ban on salty, fried, processed snacks or sweetened beverages and soft drinks in schools, starting within six months.

But the government's track record in actually changing consumer behavior is poor, columnist Javier Tejado wrote Tuesday in the newspaper El Universal. He reminded readers that the government banned junk food advertisements aimed at children in 2014.

“The result after ten years of prohibitions?” Tejado wrote. “Things are worse than when they started in 2014; Mexicans have decided to keep consuming things they like.”

The reality of Oxfam's involvement with Coldplay [CROSSBEAT (August 2006)]

In the UK, where philanthropy is very popular, celebrities and individuals often choose one (or more) of a number of organisations and campaigns to support and work with as part of their life's work. Coldplay's commitment to the UK-based development NGO Oxfam's 'Make Trade Fair' campaign is widely known.

The ‘unfair trade’ that prevails in the world is a long-standing problem between the so-called ‘developed’ and ‘developing’ countries. Historically, it has the same roots as the unfair colonial trade once practised by Western countries. Western countries buy raw materials at low prices from developing countries (without teaching them the technology) and export them, while selling goods mass-produced in their own countries to developing countries. Even now, developed countries are forcing developing countries to open their markets, putting pressure on the livelihoods of local farmers and workers. In the 1990s, when people became aware of the problems of unfair trade, it began to become a problem that footballs made by young children in Pakistan and other Asian countries, who were not allowed to go to school and were forced to work for cheap wages, were traded at high prices in the UK. In addition, in the banana industry, where five major corporations control more than 80% of the world market, the struggles of Latin American farmers, who are forced to ship at unfairly low prices, attracted attention and support movements in the late 1990s. As a result, when the first ‘fair trade bananas’ were imported into the UK in 2000, it was widely reported.

In 2002, Oxfam launched an international campaign to bring together the sporadic campaign to correct unfair trade and to call on governments and the WTO to change trade rules and shift policies. In 2002, Chris and his staff visited the Dominican Republic and Haiti in Central America to see first-hand the plight of the local people and the production of coffee beans, which had seen a decline in wholesale prices in recent years. In 2003, they visited Mexico, where they performed as a band at a concert in support of maize farmers fighting against cheap imports from the USA. In 2005, Chris toured Ghana (see photo) and was shocked to learn that cheap agricultural imports from the West were destroying local agriculture and contributing to poverty. Incidentally, Ghana is the second largest producer of cocoa beans in the world, yet it cannot make chocolate. Even if they did, they could not export it because of high tariffs imposed by developed countries.

What is needed is not for rich countries to seek more wealth, but for them to share it with less rich countries. "When I was a child in the 80s, if you saw on TV the miserable situation of farmers, the only solution was to ‘donate money’. But here I see other solutions. I mean, everyone can participate by speaking up. The more I study, the more I think that poverty is also caused by trade imbalances. What I feel is particularly serious is that we are ruining the industries of developing countries by exporting products that are surplus in developed countries at unbeatable prices. It's crazy. It should be easy to stop." (Chris).

Chris has made the movement known by wearing campaign slogan T-shirts in public, including at shows, and by contributing a column to newspapers. "As long as we're providing music with heart, we can talk openly about things we feel are important in the media in developed countries. We can also promote Fair Trade and play our part in putting pressure on governments in the developed world to expand our activities and bring about trade inequalities." -Sumi Imai

OSRR: 3508

after getting nearly no sleep last night because it was too hot down here, i got to work and i went to get my morning cocoa from the coffee shop across the street. i get my hot chocolate in a cup from the store and then i have them put ice in my metal cup so i can have ice water throughout the day.

today the girl asked me twice if i wanted ice in my cup.

i said yes, i want ice in my cup.

and she proceeded to use my cup to make the hot chocolate and then put ice in it.

it was one of the ickiest things ever.

if i wanted chocolate milk i would've grabbed one from the cooler!! but no, she put ice in my hot chocolate and made it lukewarm.

it was pretty gross.

but i drank it anyway because i paid for it and my momma ain't raise no bitch. she raised a fool but she didn't raise a quitter.

so i drank it. it was definitely gross.

today was busy! a fire alarm, three incident reports, and four people who were supposed to be flying into a blizzard made for an exciting few hours. i also worked on my crocheting and all three of us were looking for new jobs. it's funny. we all use the downtime we have to look for something that'll be more mentally stimulating and complaining about the job market and our chosen industry. it sucks, but at least we're all in it together.

on the way home i stopped for gas and for dinner at panera for me and joel. i've been in bed since about 8pm, so it's high time for me to put down the phone and go the fuck to sleep.

joel is playing upstairs still. i hope he comes and cuddles with me when he's all done.

and my cough is still bad, but i'm taking mucinex again and i hope that kills it off. i sent a message to my doctor so hopefully he'll have some more advice.

Food Poisoning Bulletin: Consumer Reports Finds Lead and Cadmium in Dark Chocolate

Food Poisoning Bulletin: Consumer Reports Finds Lead and Cadmium in Dark Chocolate.

Consumer Reports has found high levels of lead and cadmium in some dark chocolate candy brands. A study conducted by As You Sow found that many popular brands contain alarming levels of those heavy metals.

Consumer Reports Finds Lead and Cadmium in Dark Chocolate

Most people believe that dark chocolate is healthier than milk chocolate. And it may improve heart health. But this information may make some people rethink that assumption. Lead can cause significant health problems, including cancer, and it can reduce IQ and cause learning disabilities in children. Cadmium causes damage to reproductive organs, and can also damage the liver, kidneys, and bones.

As You Sow has filed legal notices with more than 20 companies that make these dark chocolate candies, including Hershey’s, Trader Joe’s, Lindt, Whole Foods, Kroger, Godiva, See’s Candies, Mars, Equal Exchange, Ghirardelli, Chocolove, and Kroger.

Consumer Reports found heavy metals in all 28 dark chocolate bars that they tested. For 23 of those chocolate bars, eating just one ounce a day would put an adult over a level that public health officials say could be harmful. Five of the bars were above the levels for both radium and lead.

The problem is that cacao plants take up cadmium from the soil when they grow. Lead contaminates the cocoa beans after they are harvested. When the beans were picked and removed from pods, the lead levels decreased, but when they were dried in the sun, they were re-contaminated.

Tunde Akinleye, the Consumer Reports food safety researcher who led this testing project said inn a statement, “While most people don’t eat chocolate every day, 15 percent do, according to the market research firm Mintel. Even if you aren’t a frequent consumer of chocolate, lead and cadmium can still be a concern.” Akinleye adds that because some companies can make bars without those high levels of heavy metals, they can do more of it.

The chocolate bars that were high in both lead and cadmium were Trader Joe’s The Dark Chocolate Lover’s Chocolate with 85% Cacao, Theo Organic Pure Dark 70% Cocoa, Theo Organic Extra Dark Pure Dark Chocolate 85% Cocoa, Lily’s Extremely Dark Chocolate 85% Cocoa, and Green & Black’s Organic Dark Chocolate 70% Cacao.

Chocolates such as Dove Promises Deeper Dark Chocolate 70% Cocoa were high in cadmium, while Godiva Signature Dark Chocolate 72% Cocoa was high in lead. You can see all of the tested chocolates and the results on the Consumer Reports site.

The safer choices include Mast Organic Dark Chocolate 80% Cocoa, Ghirardelli Intense Dark Chocolate 86% Cacao, and Valrhona Abinao Dark Chocolate 85% Cacao, among others.

Browse the full report https://www.credenceresearch.com/report/specialty-fats-and-oils-market

Market Dynamics and Key Drivers

1. Health and Wellness Trends: Consumers today are more health-conscious, seeking alternatives to traditional fats and oils that may offer nutritional benefits, including healthy fatty acids, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory properties. Specialty oils, like olive and avocado oils, are perceived as healthier due to their unsaturated fat content, which supports cardiovascular health. Additionally, certain specialty fats are used as healthier alternatives to trans fats, which have been widely banned.

2. Growing Demand in the Food and Beverage Sector: Specialty fats and oils are indispensable in the food and beverage industry, where they are used in applications such as bakery, confectionery, and dairy. Cocoa butter alternatives, for instance, are used in chocolate production to reduce costs without compromising taste and texture. Similarly, margarine and shortening made from specialty fats are favored in the bakery industry, as they contribute to desired texture, shelf life, and flavor.

3. Rise in Veganism and Plant-Based Diets: As vegan and plant-based diets gain popularity, manufacturers are under pressure to deliver plant-based alternatives to traditional animal-derived fats, like butter. Specialty oils derived from plants are integral to vegan products, providing both functionality and appeal. Coconut oil, for example, is popular in plant-based dairy alternatives due to its creamy texture and flavor.

4. Cosmetics and Personal Care Demand: Specialty oils have become essential in the cosmetics and personal care industry due to their emollient, moisturizing, and skin-nourishing properties. Oils such as argan, almond, and jojoba are popular choices for skincare, haircare, and other beauty applications. The high concentration of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in these oils makes them a premium choice for products aimed at improving skin health and elasticity.

5. Advancements in Processing Technology: Technological advancements have made it possible to create a wide range of specialty fats and oils with specific melting points, stability, and nutritional profiles. Processes like hydrogenation, interesterification, and fractionation enable manufacturers to tailor the physical and chemical properties of fats and oils to suit different applications, enhancing product appeal and functional benefits.

Challenges Facing the Specialty Fats and Oils Market

While the specialty fats and oils market is booming, it faces some significant challenges. For one, the high costs of certain specialty oils, like olive and avocado oil, may limit their accessibility to budget-conscious consumers. Additionally, sustainability issues surrounding the cultivation of palm oil have raised ethical and environmental concerns, which could influence consumer preferences and regulatory policies in the coming years. Alternative solutions, such as sustainably sourced palm oil and synthetic alternatives, are being explored to address these challenges.

Future Trends and Prospects

Looking forward, the specialty fats and oils market is expected to continue on a growth trajectory. Key trends likely to shape its future include:

- Innovation in Functional Ingredients: There is an increasing focus on creating functional fats and oils with added health benefits, such as omega-3 fortified oils and low-saturated fats. These innovations can further attract health-conscious consumers.

- Expansion of Plant-Based Products: As plant-based diets become mainstream, demand for plant-derived oils is likely to grow. Consumers are looking for sustainably sourced, non-GMO, and organic options that align with ethical and environmental values.

- Sustainability Initiatives: Manufacturers are increasingly investing in sustainable sourcing, particularly for palm oil, due to environmental concerns. Efforts toward certification and eco-friendly practices will likely gain traction as consumers demand transparency and responsibility.

2. Health and Wellness Influence

The rise of health-conscious consumers has led to a growing demand for healthier confectionery options. Manufacturers are responding by developing products with reduced sugar content, organic ingredients, and natural sweeteners.

Sugar Reduction: The introduction of government regulations, such as the UK’s sugar tax, has encouraged companies to reformulate their products to lower sugar levels without compromising taste.

Functional Ingredients: Brands are incorporating functional ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, and probiotics into confectionery products to cater to the health-conscious market.

3. Seasonal and Gifting Trends

Seasonal confectionery plays a significant role in driving sales in the UK market, especially during holidays such as Christmas, Easter, and Valentine's Day. Gifting is also a strong trend, with confectionery products frequently purchased as presents or for special occasions.

Novel Formats: Innovations in formats, such as bite-sized pieces, snack bars, and shareable packs, are making confectionery more accessible for on-the-go consumption.

Challenges in the UK Confectionery Market

1. Rising Raw Material Costs

The cost of raw materials, particularly cocoa and sugar, has been volatile in recent years. This poses a challenge for manufacturers, who must balance price increases with maintaining profit margins without passing significant costs on to consumers.

Cocoa Price Fluctuations: Cocoa prices are influenced by factors such as climate change and geopolitical instability in cocoa-producing regions, creating uncertainty for manufacturers.

Supply Chain Disruptions: Disruptions in global supply chains, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, have led to increased production costs and delayed deliveries of key ingredients.

2. Regulatory Pressures on Sugar

The UK government has implemented stringent regulations on sugar content in food products, including confectionery, in an effort to combat obesity and promote public health. This has forced manufacturers to reformulate their products to meet regulatory requirements while maintaining consumer appeal.

Impact of the Sugar Tax: The sugar tax has led to reformulations across the confectionery sector, with companies reducing sugar levels and introducing alternatives like natural sweeteners.

Product Reformulation Challenges: Reformulating products without compromising on taste, texture, or quality presents significant technical challenges for manufacturers.

3. Competition from Healthier Snacks

As consumer preferences shift toward healthier snacking options, the confectionery sector faces growing competition from alternatives such as protein bars, fruit snacks, and yogurt-coated products. Brands must innovate to retain market share amidst changing consumer behaviors.

Alternative Snacking: Brands focusing on plant-based, gluten-free, and sugar-free options are attracting health-conscious consumers who might otherwise avoid traditional confectionery.

Product Diversification: Confectionery brands are expanding their portfolios to include products that meet the demands of health-conscious consumers, such as high-protein or reduced-calorie treats.

Opportunities for Growth

1. Expansion into Healthier Confectionery

The growing health and wellness trend presents significant opportunities for confectionery brands to develop healthier alternatives that cater to the rising demand for low-sugar, organic, and natural products.

Plant-Based Confectionery: The rising popularity of veganism is driving demand for plant-based confectionery, which is seen as a healthier and more sustainable option.

Sugar-Free Products: Offering sugar-free or reduced-sugar variants of traditional confectionery products is a key growth opportunity for brands aiming to cater to health-conscious consumers.

2. E-commerce and Digital Channels

The digital transformation of the retail landscape has created opportunities for confectionery brands to expand their reach through online platforms. The rise of e-commerce has made it easier for consumers to access a wide range of confectionery products, including niche and artisanal brands.

Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) Sales: Confectionery brands are increasingly adopting DTC sales models, allowing them to reach consumers directly through their own e-commerce platforms.

Subscription Boxes: The popularity of subscription services offers an opportunity for confectionery brands to provide curated selections of products delivered directly to consumers on a regular basis.

3. Sustainability and Ethical Sourcing

Sustainability and ethical sourcing are becoming critical factors in consumer purchasing decisions. Brands that prioritize fair trade practices, eco-friendly packaging, and sustainable ingredient sourcing can capitalize on the growing demand for responsible consumption.

Fair Trade and Organic Labels: Products with fair trade and organic certifications are gaining traction as consumers become more conscious of the environmental and social impact of their purchases.

Sustainable Packaging: The shift towards sustainable packaging, such as biodegradable or recyclable materials, is an opportunity for brands to align with consumer preferences and reduce their environmental footprint.

Future Outlook

The UK confectionery market is expected to continue its steady growth, driven by innovation, premiumization, and the expansion of healthier product offerings. Several factors will shape the future of the market:

1. Continued Innovation in Healthier Products
