Talking Points: Consumers in Perspective
In this summer edition, we draw largely from the published work and commentary of my colleagues at Rabobank who specialize in a range of areas from beef to beverages and everything in between. Although writing about different areas of the food system, the impact of and on the consumer is omnipresent.

1. The Return of Inflation: Transitory or Permanent?
2. Rising Orange Juice Demand: We’ve Been Here Before
3. Hard Seltzer: A Truly Exceptional Story
4. The Risks of Recovery for US Beef Demand: Potential Vulnerabilities Post-Pandemic
5. Consumer-Led Changes Across the Food Industry: From Dairy to Fresh Produce to Sugar
