Cue the applause: These 25 products won Delicious Living 2018 Best Bite Awards

Shopping the perimeter of the grocery store is a good way to eat better, but thanks to impressive innovation from new and existing natural food brands, venturing into the aisles of natural grocery stores needn’t curtail customers' healthy eating plans.

Now in its sixth year, Delicious Living’s Best Bite Awards program lauds health-promoting packaged products that contain less sugar and sodium; more protein, fiber and good fats; and simpler ingredients you can pronounce. From butternut squash–infused ketchup to a bean-kale-quinoa microwaveable meal, the following winners across 25 categories allow eating well to also mean eating easy. And as savvy natural foodies are mindful to not only a product’s ingredients but also where they came from, the following products are from companies that source responsibly.

Keep leading shoppers to the produce section—and place these award-winning products on your shelves as well.
