About this listen

 Allinfoodz covers a variety of food, and foodservice-related topics that aim to answer core questions regarding our food decisions: How, and why we eat food? The process of creating, serving, and eating food can be a personal or social event. Most people think about food frequently during any given day. Furthermore, there are often underlying reasons that might drive how we make our food choices and decisions, whether we are consuming, or offering food to others. Allinfoodz provides a space to share varied and all-inclusive food choice research, stories, narratives and experiences, so that we can learn from each other.Copyright 2026 Allinfoodz Art Cooking Exercise & Fitness Fitness, Diet & Nutrition Food & Wine Hygiene & Healthy Living Social Sciences

  • Food Choices at the Grocery Store

    Food Choices at the Grocery Store
    Jan 29 2026

    Grocery stores, both physical and digital, quietly shape what we at, how much we spend, and how healthy our choices become. In this episode of allinfoodz, we explore how online grocery shopping influences nutrition, food waste, and equity, drawing on recent research with Dr. Yizao Liu. From algorithms to SNAP policy, we ask whether technology is helping people eat better—or simply nudging them differently.
