Summary

On this episode of The Food Professor Podcast, hosts Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois welcome Hugo Magnan, President of Groupe MAG, makers of premium mayonnaise and sauces from Quebec. Hugo shares insights into artisanal food production, flavour innovation, and building a beloved regional brand on the cusp of a national breakout. The hosts then dissect highlights from Canada’s Food Price Report, including a forecasted 4–6% grocery cost increase, centre-aisle restructuring, coffee price spikes, consumer shopping behaviours, and why 2026 may feel different despite continued affordability pressures.
