Food is more than fuel—it’s culture, history, and identity. Shane Hewitt speaks with Dr. Sylvain Charlebois, The Food Professor, about the tension between innovation and tradition in today’s food landscape. From plant-based and lab-grown options to the ethical challenges of food marketing, they explore how sustainability goals and technology are reshaping what we eat. The conversation asks whether synthetic foods can truly replace tradition without sacrificing taste, nutrition, or cultural meaning.
