SHIFTHEADS – Beef, Bananas, and the Future of Food Pricing

Food pricing isn’t just about what’s on the shelf — it’s about the systems behind it. Dr. Sylvain Charlebois discusses the economics of Canadian beef, the structural advantages of banana supply chains, and how cultural dynamics influence transparency in the meat industry. He also examines the role of McDonald’s in expanding plant-based options, the competition from Australian beef, and the overlooked realities of processing plants. The result is a big-picture look at where food pricing is headed.
