Background: The rapid evolution of food technologies, growing environmental concerns, and socio-economic disparities are reshaping global food consumption patterns. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for developing sustainable and equitable food systems. Objective: This systematic review aims to explore how technological advancements, environmental issues, and socio-economic factors influence global food consumption trends from 2025 to 2035. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, covering studies published between 2010 and 2023. Inclusion criteria focused on studies addressing technological, environmental, or socio-economic impacts on food consumption. The quality of included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Data were synthesized thematically. Results: The review found that precision agriculture, alternative proteins, and food processing technologies are driving significant changes in dietary patterns. Environmental concerns, such as greenhouse gas emissions and water use, are leading to a shift towards plant-based diets. Socio-economic factors, including income, education, and cultural norms, continue to shape food choices. Conclusion: These findings underscore the need for policies and practices that support sustainable food technologies and address socio-economic disparities. Further research is needed to explore the long-term sustainability of these trends and their socio-economic implications.
