Understanding modern nutrition issues requires embarking on a historical journey, tracing the critical aspects and outcomes that have shaped the current landscape. Over time, scientific knowledge, food availability, processing, and preservation methods have undergone significant transformations. The global commercial exchange has grown exponentially, creating a vastly different scenario from the past. This exchange has influenced food availability, distribution models, preservation techniques, and the composition of individual foodstuffs.

In industrialized countries, the daily products consumed have undergone a remarkable transformation through the ingenuity of the food industry. These products have been meticulously reviewed, incorporating innovative elements that distinguish them in terms of structure, content, and packaging. The packaging itself serves as a protective barrier, ensuring the safety and containment of these products.

In this Brief of work, we will delve into the realm of innovation within the food sector. After exploring the topic of innovation, we will examine the various first- and second-generation product categories distributed in Europe during the post-war reconstruction period. By highlighting the reasons behind their birth and development, we aim to illustrate the transformative impact they have had on the market. Specific examples will be provided for each proposed class, encompassing their properties, technologies, innovation potential, related regulations, and distinctive features.

This comprehensive analysis will provide a deeper understanding of the advancements and challenges in the food industry, shedding light on the driving forces behind product innovation and their potential to shape the future of food consumption.
