The food systems have evolved since Norman Borlaug won the Nobel peace prize in 1970. The Nobel going to World Food Programme underlines the importance and continual efforts required for feeding the world. Today, the world has moved away from food for sustenance to food for health and wellness. Rising awareness regarding micronutrient deficiencies and their adverse effects on health has consumers paying attention to their vitamin and mineral uptake. However, a large part of our population does not have access nor partakes the recommended nutrients in their diet. Globally, around 2 billion people suffer from hidden hunger, in absence of nutritious food. In 2020 FAO celebrated World Food day with the theme "Grow, Nourish, Sustain, Together". The observation has never been any more relevant as the hike in food system vulnerabilities due to the Covid pandemic.
