How has the contents of lunch boxes changed over the generations?

Answer 1

Food Product development is an important activity in the food industry. Product innovation is a necessity for food processing companies to survive in the competitive business environment.

Businesses spend a significant amount of their time and money on the development of new products. However, the success rate of companies in the new product development is considerably less. Large companies with ample financial resources can afford to have in-house product development teams for product innovations. Unlike the large companies, MSMEs cannot afford the product development teams and therefore lag in terms of product innovation.

Answer 2

In the past century, food production has moved from the home and local agriculture to huge, corporate "agribusiness" and factory production, usually located far from the point of consumption. Most recently, much more food preparation has moved out of the home to factory-prepared "convenience" food and restaurants.

Answer 3

food has changed through the development of new ingredients in each product.
