News & Events

  1. The 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission will launch at the Stockholm Food Forum on October 3rd, and present their findings on how to feed a growing global population while ensuring justice and equity in the transformation of food systems. It is an update to the 2019 report on the “Planetary Health Diet.” I will keep you posted.
  2. The featured posts focus changes at the end of September 25 from ‘Reduce Waste’ to ‘Food Traditions & Food Culture’ (October 25 – January 26). If you want to take a look at all the posts that have been part of the “Reduce Waste” feature, check out the post [“Thank you, I’m Good”]. It has a list of the previously featured posts on the topic.
  3. In the Northern Hemisphere, the summer is coming to an end. Which is the official opening of the soup and stew season. And yes, there are some more soup recipes coming your way.
  4. As this quarter is coming to an end, we will take a short break. As usual. The next post — and thereby the start of the Autumn Edition 2025 — will break the usual pattern, though, and come online on Monday, October 13. The reasons for that are, for one, that there will be some technical and design improvements to the site. So, there might be a short break at the beginning of October. Also, I will be at the Berlin Food Week on the second weekend of October. The Berlin Food Week takes place from October 6th to October 12th this year in different locations all over Berlin. I am going to be taking a closer look at the House of Food. You can read more about that on Monday, 13th.
