Nearly 500 products were chosen as finalists out of almost 2,000 submissions for this, the 11th edition of these prestigious awards. Presented annually by the Good Food Foundation, the Good Food Awards recognize food and beverage brands that both delight palates and embrace social and environmental activism—in short, truly "good" food.

Although the awards ceremony will take place virtually this year, there is still plenty to celebrate. We were particularly excited to see some of our favorite natural products brands nominated throughout the sixteen categories (including some NEXTY winners!). Here are a few of our favorites and some others we're still dying to try.
