The main food company that adopts artificial intelligence programs for product development and quality assurance says that the technology platform is advantageous in competitive and fast -progressed industries and is two stages ahead of potential market turmoil.
Kellanova and Giant Giant Ingredion are one of the companies that use the technology of the supply chain to improve the recipe formulation and maintain the product to the latest state in accordance with the regulations.
The two companies detailed the use of AI with the Tastewise of the artificial intelligence provider in the virtual innovation status of the food manufacturing event hosted by the Food Dive and Sister Publication Manufacturing Dive on April 9.
AI throughout the entire supply chain
Kellanova’s R & D officer David Lestage said that snacks of Pringles and Rice Crisis use technology to solve the problem of regulations and consumers. In 2024, Kellanova listed artificial intelligence as one of the five best technology priorities that need to double with digital twins and data analysis.
Above all, Kellanova uses AI to identify ingredients that can be replaced if certain raw materials are not available. Lestage said that the platform used by the company can identify various grades or modifications of rice and corn.
Lestage said, “We will be able to change things much more efficiently, reduce downtime, reduce labor burden, and accelerate the decision to determine such changes.
Kellanova and Ingredion are increasingly following regulatory compliance using AI. In particular, President Donald Trump’s trade war is creating new uncertainty. Kellanova uses a platform called regask to identify the world’s latest regulations related to the sector, such as packaging and carbon emissions. Through this technology, the company’s workers may not be too stupid to try to solve all nations’ unique regulations, according to LESTAGE, where employees can focus on other tasks.
Chad Davis, vice president of global supply chain, said in Ingredion that ingredients use AI technology to predict the most influential components of the supply chain crisis such as unexpected speed bumps such as tariffs or unexpected speed bumps (eg Suez canal).
INGREDION has created a “digital twin” of the supply chain network and has created consumer trend data from all over the world through manufacturing and distribution, materials supply and costs and consumer trend data around the world. This technology allows the company to see how certain events, such as tariffs, are spread throughout the supply chain, and prepare the ingredients if the potential challenges are fruitful.
“We have modeled all models in global simulations, so we update the table in the simulation, such as tariffs, offer the next best solution.

The following large consumer trends are predicted
In addition to the supply chain, the company depends on AI and uses the next big taste or product launch following the constantly changing consumer trend.
Kellanova’s food scientists use the Tastewise to expand their creative abilities such as packaging, claims and recommended recipes. In addition, Lestage said on platforms such as EDGE and Copilot, using Microsoft’s AI tools, mining insights in product development, Lestage said.
There is a nuance and the nuances found on each platform attempted by the cheese maker. Lestage said, “A tool to get consumer feedback … for several months, the product development timeline is enormously accelerated.
The AI Company Tastewise predicts the prediction of stirping billions of data points, such as social media interactions, home recipes and restaurant menus on the surface of the food industry.
This platform contains a chatbot similar to CHATGPT, allowing users to file a query for specific questions. Through this process, companies can promptly predict what consumers require, not “static research,” said COO TAL TOCHNER.
Tochner said, “A company that actually wins is a company that can personalize and understand consumers.” They require questions and legitimacy questions to customize marketing strategies and overcome shelves.
