New York Times Mixing Cuisines, Mexicue Moves Beyond the Food Truck How often a food truck becomes a restaurant is unclear, but Julia Gallo-Torres, of Mintel, the market research firm, said it was probably an anomaly rather than the norm. “A lot of food truck start-ups just remain food trucks,” and often the owners burn out after a period of time, she said. “Food trucks are not sustainable because of the lifestyle. They tend to be owned by people who have to work and do all of the jobs that are involved there. It’s not something they want to do long-term.”

Associated Press Americans find yogurt needn’t be sweet to appeal The grocery store dairy aisle might soon reflect that shift as well. According to a 2014 report by market research firm Mintel, “While the majority of leading yogurt flavours are sweet, the spread of savoury offerings at foodservice and retail may portend the next shift in the category.” Examples include not only Sohha and the White Moustache but also Dannon’s Oikos Greek Yogurt Dips in French onion, cucumber dill, roasted red pepper and vegetable herb, and Blue Hill Yogurt’s vegetable-flavoured varieties such as parsnip and beet. This evolution of the category, the report states, both expands the times of day when consumers turn to yogurt (beyond breakfast, in other words) and attracts potential new buyers.
