In opposition to fat phobias, according to the Zagat 2012 Guide, southern cuisine will also be trending; celebrity chefs like Marcus Samuelsson are examples of influencers of this trend. Salzman also suggests that the healthy snack category will prevail as well, not only in popularity but in sales.
