Disrupting Dinner: FoodTrucks, Top Chefs & Yo Mama

Description

Mobile is revolutionizing food culture, from soup to Korean Tacos. And we’re not just talking about tweeted photos of pork flavored ice cream.
Mobile is the social location-based foundation of the “food truck economy;” of Jamie Oliver’s tutorials and recipes on your iPad; and of meal planning apps that impact what moms put on the table. The smartphone is now a part of everyone’s diet. We are democratizing once haughty meals with photo sharing, creating opportunities for entrepreneur chefs in need of real estate, and driving diners to previously uncharted 5-star dives. And society is only on the first course.
Mobile and tablet adoption have passed the tipping point, and the table is set to dramatically change how/where/what we eat. Devices impact the taste buds and waistlines of our country, and our appetite for fresh, local foods. Disrupting Dinner goes in-depth to examine how we cook, shop, and dine out according to what our phones tell us.
