This trend is quite popular among individuals who already have decided to be vegetarian or vegan and believe it has a lot to do with personal wellness. Recently habits promoting total natural eating habits have become very trendy. Lately there has been a lot of focus on choosing natural options for chemical substitues. A lot of places are offering natural cane sugar as well as the artificial sweeteners. A number of newer products have had the artificial sweeteners replaced with natural ingredients before the company releases them. Because antioxidants became a focus among health marketers, certain fruits became quite trendy. Pomegranates became very popular in all sorts of products. The market is being flooded with pomegranate drinks, snacks containing pomegranate or pomegranate flavors, body wash products containing pomegranate, and candles or other home products with pomegranate scents. Another fruit that was virtually unheard of and suddenly became popular is the acai berry. Now it is being used for weight loss and became very popular quite quickly. When looking at fads surrounding eating healthy, organic products have become quite the popular commodity. Especially concerning meats, there has been a demand to know where and how the animal was raised. Many individuals choose only to buy free range meats, which is to say the animal was not contained, but was able to graze freely. Eating organic in all food, however, has also become quite popular as mentioned above. Because of this new organic population of shoppers, companies are creating a wide variety of organic products. One trend that has done surprisingly well especially in regards to the issue of child obesity is incorporating fitness into technology and fun. With the release of video games consoles that require the player to interact physically, fitness games have become quite trendy. This also has allowed video game companies to reach new consumer types by creating fitness games that cover an array of interests including yoga, snowboarding, dancing, basketball, archery, and many others. Though it can be somewhat pricey to purchase the game system, equipment, and games, but they still seem to sell in large numbers especially, but not exclusively, among youth. Creative fitness plans are becoming more and more popular. The aerobics tapes from the 80's and 90's are being replaced by more modern workout options, specifically involving dance. A lot of individuals are more motivated to work out by videos and classes that involve cardio workouts put to music and using dance steps. Similarly to the use of technology in fitness, designing new options instead of the typical cardio workouts means more individuals wanting to invest time and money into these products than the somewhat outdated types of fitness.
