Dave Cohen shared thisLove this Chris Van Dusen!Dave Cohen shared thisThe End of the Soda Binary: How Functional Beverages Are Rewriting Consumer Health "For decades, the beverage aisle ran on a binary: a drink could taste good, or it could be good for you, but rarely at once. Soda sat on one side of that line: flavor, fizz, and convenience, with little to offer the body beyond calories. That binary is now collapsing, and the market is moving toward drinks that can do both."

Dave Cohen shared thisThanks for the coverage BevNET.com!Dave Cohen shared thisSkyPop says its flavor-first protein soda strategy has taken it to 10,000 doors in just eight months. 🥤📈 The rebranded former Don’t Quit platform is now in retailers including Publix, HyVee, Meijer, Giant Eagle and Weis Markets, with additional distribution across Costco, CVS, Target, Walmart, Albertsons and Kroger. The zero-sugar modern soda, made with 10 grams of whey isolate protein per can, is leaning into “superior soda taste” as protein demand accelerates and the category gets more crowded. 🏪 Link to the full story in the first comment below 👇 #BeverageIndustry #ProteinSoda #FunctionalBeverage #ModernSoda #CPG #RetailExpansion #BeverageNews

Dave Cohen liked thisDave Cohen liked thisI took some time this week to familiarize myself with the basics of Power BI. After connecting with some corporate professionals and researching internship qualification descriptions, I wanted to take the time on my own to learn a software I will likely be involved in throughout my career. Although I was unable to access Power BI directly, taking in the overall layout and functions of the suite throughout the course was a helpful way to visually adapt to what the possibilities are.

Meanwhile, Right Coast Spirits tapped longtime Harpoon executive Jon Schwartz to steer commercial strategy as its RTD Italian Ice brand posted triple-digit depletions growth, and NOCA Beverages promoted Stephanie Bernier to lead sales across the Mountain West.

Searching for growth? General Mills has announced plans to boldly go after the over 55s in their quest to increase volumes. While much of CPG chases 18-45s or the latest wellness fad, General Mills is placing its bets on three under-the-radar, high-leverage consumer groups: - Adults aged 55 +, who account for nearly half of U.S. households and have enormous spending power. - Consumers using GLP-1 medications (up to 12%+ of U.S. adults), who’re eating less but seeking more protein, more functional nutrients, smaller portions. - Hispanic shoppers, where General Mills plans to ramp up innovation and engagement by ~40% in FY26. This move takes product renovation in new directions - redesigning products and formats to match how people now live, eat and feel. They’re innovating for smaller households (smaller pack sizes), higher-protein need states, functional nutrition and not just indulgence. And this isn’t an isolated move. It’s part of a broader CPG reboot as the absence of growth looms.
