TikTok has transformed food and drink discovery, with 72% of snackers trying new products and over half trying a snack after viewing creator videos. The platform's full-screen, sound-on environment inspires action: 60% seek more info on products seen. To succeed, CPG brands should adopt an always-on strategy with authentic content, engaging reviews, and creator collaborations.

Ultimately, TikTok turns the marketing funnel into an infinite flywheel for food and drink brands.
