What food trends are actually shaping 2026, and which ones we want to see left in 2025!
On this episode of The Food Guys, Dub Eats and Nectorious Papi recap the biggest trends from 2025, from matcha, pistachio, protein-everything and tiramisu, to cinnamon scrolls and Dubai’s social food influence.
Then we look ahead to what’s next: charcoal chicken, fried chicken evolutions, elevated comfort food, creative caviar takes, oil alternatives like tallow, healthier sodas, fibre-focused foods, and the rise of international brands like Jollibee.
We also explore where flavour is heading from sauces becoming the real hero, to sweet and savoury snack crossovers, and why Greek flavours and casual Greek dining could be primed for a big moment in Australia.
Trends, hype, and what might actually last this one’s all about what’s coming next.
