“…Chemical treatment of crops for storage may have undesirable effects that lead to decreased nutritional value or altered sensory properties. Little is known about the effect of storage chemicals on the physicochemical properties (such as gel consistency, water absorption, solubility, gelatinization, and bulk density), nutritional content involving proximate profile (crude fat, ash content, moisture content, nitrogen-free extract, and crude protein), carbohydrate (amylase, starch, and amylopectin), total dietary fiber and ash content [ 30 ] of agro-produce in Africa. Based on the chemical groups present in these chemicals, there is a possibility of the adduct (or metabolites) formation resulting from chemical interactions between the nutrients and phytochemicals present in the crops, thereby reducing or limiting the availability of these nutritional components of crops and inhibiting food enzymes [ 31 ].…”

“…Numerous research endeavors have been undertaken to develop rice cultivars with a reduced glycemic index, given the extensive global rice consumption. These investigations have explored diverse approaches, such as the utilization of gamma-ray radiation (Hurtada, 2020;Manasikana et al, 2023) and the application of ultrasound and cooling techniques (Darmayanti, Utomo et al, 2023;Urbain et al, 2021). In addition to engineering, several academic inquiries have prompted the exploration of alternative primary food sources beyond rice.…”

Cassava can be consumed through various processing methods, including boiling, frying, grilling over wood charcoal, and pounding and processing into a starchy paste known as getup. During its day, this tradition exhibited qualities that were commendable, pragmatic, and held significant worth. Nevertheless, successfully adopting these preparations and cuisines among the millennial age and age Z necessitates ingenuity and inventiveness. This study investigates the potential of cassava rice as a viable alternative to paddy rice while also proposing strategies to enhance the reputation and market perception of cassava rice to match that of paddy rice objects. The researchers employed a systematic literature review methodology, which was subsequently followed by a comprehensive analysis and comparison of the data put forth in earlier investigations. The findings of the study indicate that cassava rice has the potential to serve as a viable alternative to traditional rice on a national scale. Hence, cassava rice can be analogous to regular rice due to its significant carbohydrate content, allowing it to fulfill the same dietary role. The primary objective of this research is to establish a foundation for micro companies to conduct experimental trials in order to substantiate the advantages of cassava rice, both in terms of its nutritional value and its potential for use in various recipes. The research is constrained by its methodology, which relies on longitudinal and laboratory findings as the theoretical foundation.

There is increasing recognition that sustainable diets need to be ‘culturally appropriate’. In relation to food consumption, however, it is often unclear what cultural appropriateness–or related terms, such as cultural or social acceptability–actually means. Often these terms go undefined, and where definitions are present, they vary widely. Based on a systematic literature review this paper explores how cultural appropriateness of food consumption is conceptualised across different research literatures, identifying six main themes in how cultural appropriateness is understood and applied. The paper then critically analyses these themes in relation to sustainable food system transformation. We explore how the themes conceptualise change, finding that cultural appropriateness is viewed in two main ways: either as a relatively static obstacle to be overcome, or as a dynamic and negotiated process. Both perspectives, we argue, entail different scientific, practical and political effects. Each perspective offers particular affordances for understanding and governing sustainable food system transition, although between perspectives there is likely to be a trade-off between theoretical sophistication and practical operationalizability. Based on this analysis we argue that researchers, policymakers and practitioners should be explicit about their commitment to a particular understanding of cultural appropriateness, as this will have implications for scientific and societal applications of their work. This is particularly the case, we suggest, in relation to the transdisciplinary collaborations necessary to effectively address the ‘wicked problem’ of food system sustainability. We conclude by offering a tentative general definition of cultural appropriateness as it relates to food consumption.
