  • The environment which surrounds us such as climates, technology change rapidly. Forecasting the future of food by reviewing the subject at the moment would be meaningful, because we could understand the impact of new technology, set the new goal and create the future by speaking out on issues of our concern and by our choices. There are two points of view on our future, one is pessimistic view due to the food and the water shortage, as well as environmental contamination. Another is optimistic view mainly because of innovative technologies. Biotechnology would enable to develope the personalized food using nutrigenomics, nutrigenetics, and nutraceuticals. Nanotechnology and shelf-life extension techniques would contribute great deal to the development of the future food. Consumer's concern for the health and the wellness as well as palatability would affect the development of future food so that the involvment of food cookery scientists are more important to meet the consumer's needs and trends.

  • The food R&D operating system needs to be changed according to the changes in the food industry as well as the domestic and overseas environments. In this aspect, a future-oriented food R&D operating strategy linked with the governmental policy are proposed to foster the promising food industry. The strategic R&D approaches are summarized on the basis of global mega-trends and food industry trend analysis, and current R&D status and issues are also reviewed to set the R&D operating direction for future food industry. To advance the R&D operating system of the food industry, some practical suggestions are given as follows: strengthening the research planning system for efficient R&D program operation, enhancing the role assignment and collaboration among the R&D organizations, reinforcing the support system tailored to industrial sites and securing the future technology bases as well as resolving present issues, and linking R&D programs with policies and improving the food R&D management system.

  • New concepts and solutions for the Flexible Food Packaging Design have been demanded to meet the various customer's needs and to compete with other worldwide products. Future-oriented designs beyond the basic functions of preserving and protecting contents can only meet the demands on product's reliability and consumer's satisfaction, specially considering environmental issues. This study is to describe the spiritual values of Korean Flexible Food Packaging Design on the basis of comprehensive understanding and to identify the process of changes and developments. The thesis also forecasts the future of Flexible Food Packaging. Little progress in the Flexible Food Packaging has been made because of the slow response, only to meet the increasing demand without any statistical or theoretical study. On the contrary, Korean Flexible Food Packaging Design has been developed by imitating foreigners' and made mistake of not creating original design reflecting a native traditional culture. This study researches the roles of food-classified flexible packaging to predict the near future trend of packaging industry classifying those into functional, visual, environmental and industrial aspects.

  • The main goal of this study is to show promising future food market of Northeast Asia countries, including China, Japan, and South Korea. Drinks market, including soft and alcoholic drinks is selected to show global food companies new opportunities for next strategic movements. Market Attractiveness Matrix is developed based on BCG matrix as a main framework for this study. CDI (Category Development Index) is also used. It is found that Asia-pacific has fast-growing markets and it has strong potential for future investment. Northeast Asia countries (China, Japan, and South Korea) turned out to be ones of the most attractive regional markets. However, European drinks market is saturated even though its size is still big. This study suggests that Northeast Asian market be considered a market for the next strategic movement and investment.

  • Excessive ethanol intake is known to induce a number of physiological symptoms, including headache, dizziness and vertigo. In this study, we investigated the attenuation effect of sprouted peanut extract (SPE) on ethanol-induced hangover in male Sprague-Dawley rats. The animals were divided into five groups: the control group, which was administered ethanol only; the ethanol plus SPE experimental groups, which were administered ethanol and 100, 200, or 400 mg SPE/kg b.w.; and the positive control group, which was administered ethanol plus DAWN808$^{(R)}$, a commercial product. SPE-suspended water was delivered to rats via gavage 15 h and 30 min before the administration of ethanol. Blood was collected from the tail 0, 1, 3, and 5 h after ethanol administration. The results showed that serum ethanol concentrations were significantly lower in SPE treated groups than in the control group. Furthermore, hepatic alcohol and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase activities were enhanced by SPE in a dose dependent manner. These results suggest that SPE could be useful in attenuating hangover after alcohol consumption.

  • The definition of meat analog refers to the replacement of the main ingredient with other than meat. It also called a meat substitute, meat alternatives, fake or mock meat, and imitation meat. The increased importance of meat analog in the current trend is due to the health awareness among consumers in their diet and for a better future environment. The factors that lead to this shift is due to low fat and calorie foods intake, flexitarians, animal disease, natural resources depletion, and to reduce greenhouse gas emission. Currently, available marketed meat analog products are plant-based meat in which the quality (i.e., texture and taste) are similar to the conventional meat. The ingredients used are mainly soy proteins with novel ingredients added, such as mycoprotein and soy leghemoglobin. However, plant-based meat is sold primarily in Western countries. Asian countries also will become a potential market in the near future due to growing interest in this product. With the current advance technology, lab-grown meat with no livestock raising or known as cultured meat will be expected to boost the food market in the future. Also, insect-based products will be promising to be the next protein resource for human food. Nevertheless, other than acceptability, cost-effective, reliable production, and consistent quality towards those products, product safety is the top priority. Therefore, the regulatory frameworks need to be developed alongside.
