  • What if we could know the detailed journey of all the foods we eat, from farm to table? #FoodBlockchain #Traceability

    Do you have any idea where your food comes from? 🤔 I mean, sure, we all know it doesn't just magically appear on the supermarket shelves. But the journey from farm to table is often a mystery, sometimes filled with more drama than a blockbuster. Now, imagine being able to scan a QR code on your favourite pack of chicken and instantly see your Chicken's entire life story, from the interesting farm it was raised on to the crazy processing plant it went through. Imagine you can do this for every food item. No more wondering if your food is safe, authentic, or ethically sourced. But it's not just about satisfying our curiosity as this can help build trust between everyone involved in the food supply chain, from farmers to retailers to us, the consumers - helping us make more informed choices about what we eat. So, I want to know: how much do you know or care about your food's journey and what current habits of yours show that you care? 🌍

    Is social media messing with your head when it comes to food? 🤯 In this week's video, I talk about how platforms like Instagram and TikTok are shaping the way we eat. It's a wild world out there, with everything from food pics that make you drool to diet trends that can actually make you go crazy. Sure, social media has its perks. It's introduced us to new recipes and connected us with other foodies. But it's also got a dark side, making us feel like we need to eat a certain way to fit in. 😞 So, how do we navigate this digital food landscape without losing our minds? By being smart about who we follow and remembering that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to eating. What do you think? Has social media changed the way you think about food? Have you found any accounts that inspire you to eat better and more consciously? Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments. You might just be inspiring someone else with your experience. ❤️

    Head of Collaboration and Acquisition at JCDecaux

    I am delighted to introduce the latest winner of the Google for Startups Black Founders Fund and JCDecaux UK Reach program competition to screens across London's retail, mall, and roadside spaces. Collaborating with FoodLama on this significant campaign has been such a personally fulfilling experience. Together, we're bringing FoodLama to the masses—a fantastic app revolutionising how consumers discover a new world of food. Serving as a free pocket nutritionist, FoodLama employs advanced algorithms to customise food recommendations based on individual preferences and goals, whether it's for healthier choices, catering to intolerances or allergies, or adhering to a specific religious diet. Our data and planning capabilities were put to the test to ensure the Foodlama campaign reached the right audience, in the right locations, with the most impactful messaging. Congratulations to Damilare Ogunleye and Santiago Schmitt on this well-deserved win! Looking forward to catching up in February! 🚀 #Foodlama #GoogleforStartups #JCDecauxUK #Congratulations #reach
