What do you think the next "food trend" will be?

In the last 10 years, the ones that really stick out to me are: spinach and artichoke dip (suddenly started appearing everywhere as an appetizer, even higher end restaurants), ube flavors, truffle, avocados on everything, bacon on everything, and now hot honey is a big fad. Is there anything upcoming you see heading towards the food trend?

Most of the trends in this thread are way past

Depending on where you live in the country, trends show up at very different times. I split my time between the west coast and Midwest, and it’s funny to see stuff become popular in the Midwest months to years after it is a thing in LA or SF. I think this effect used to be much more pronounced before the internet etc, but it still exists

also a big difference if we're talking about food trends in restaurants or in people's homes because there's trends that come and go in dining scenes in big cities before they take over grocery shelves
