This is a joke, right? Call me when they sell this at my local groceries' (for cheap).
Exactly. Many items on the list were selected because they are less used.

I mean a lot of these are readily available (lentils, walnuts, fava beans, kale, quinoa)

Shockingly, the report might not be targeted specifically at you...

#15(Side note: that is one gorgeous document.)
After watching the excellent documentary "Eating You Alive", I have mostly switched to a whole-food plant-based diet and feel fantastic, although I do eat the occasional pair of eggs. The big difficulty with the diet is avoiding all the refined oils that permeate our packaged food culture. Luckily, my wife is a professional cook and still cooks at home.
That said, this document already has some of my favs and has added a ton of new ideas. This crazy diet is really difficult just from a "finding foods I can actually eat" sense. As such, I have lost a few pounds but one thing I notice for sure is that my skin is in much better shape now. The beautiful thing about the diet is that I find that my body can handle cheat foods much better and I feel happy to get back on the diet right after.
Of all the things I miss, I miss cheese the most, but coffee with oat milk is just fine. Ultimately, I think the beauty of this diet is that I am forced to eat things like beans, tubers, tofu and whole grains for lack of anything else to eat. And I'm usually so dang hungry that I love them, thanks to my wife's efforts.
Oh, and the diet is actually much less expensive, especially when you buy dry beans.

#16Knorr Future 50 Report? Title should be changed to inform that it's not WWF report alone.
I scanned the report for Knorr's involvement and nothing seemed fishy to me. There was this paragraph:
This was assessed by Knorr cross-functional teams of marketers, nutritionists, chefs, and product developers spanning across Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Europe and Australia, who answered the assessment questions with yes/no/maybe for every ingredient. The data were collated and assessed to determine which foods should potentially be eliminated based on responses. If more than half of the countries answered ‘no’ to one of the questions, the ingredient was eliminated. The relative nutrient density scores (NRF) were considered when choosing between foods with similar input, ensuring the foods in the final list would be nutritious.
Then later near the bottom:
Knorr and WWF have joined forces with other leaders in nutrition and sustainability to develop Future 50 Foods
In writing this report, Knorr, WWF and Adam Drewnowski are grateful for input and review from experts at Bioversity International, Crops For the Future, EAT Foundation, Edelman, Food and Land Use Coalition (FOLU), Food Reform for Sustainability and Health (FReSH), GAIN, Global Crop Diversity Trust, Gro Intelligence, Oxfam GB, SDG2 Advocacy Hub, Wageningen University and Yolélé Foods. This report ultimately reflects the views of Knorr, WWF and Adam Drewnowski. The creation of this report was led by Dorothy Shaver, Registered Dietitian and Global Knorr Sustainability Lead. It was published in February 2019.

#17Thanks but no thanks

#18Why are all 50 items on the list "SNAP INTO A SLIM JIM!"? What do you mean the "other" WWF?
For a more hyrdated planet the WWF suggests Brondo. It's got electrolytes.
