Taking a look at [URL='https://thereader.com/dining/2019-food-trend-predictions']last year’s predictions[/URL], I feel like we did pretty well. Filipino food has been tightly embraced, and sugar is still public enemy No. 1. The final nail may not be in Applebee’s coffin, but fewer chains are popping up and small business is getting big. One of the projections that failed to meet our expectations was the pipe dream of ethical sourcing. While the ICE raids on local produce and meat processing plants masqueraded as attempts to move toward ethical labor practices, the acts themselves were just more swings at underserved populations. Small Omaha businesses and restaurants are willing to do the extra legwork to find fair-trade ingredients; yet, big businesses continue to rely on factory farms to supply them with cheap labor at any cost. As small businesses occupy more of the landscape, their voices will become louder and sourcing practices will change. Until then, support small businesses and know that every time you buy from Walmart, you are doomed to stub your toe in the middle of the night, and you will deserve it. [/QUOTE]
