Lately our food mantra has been “Yes… and”: “Yes, I will enjoy my favorite foods because they are delicious and make me happy. And I will also try to maximize their nutritional value. ”
Five of our current food obsessions from brands we love prove that enjoyment and nutrition do not have to be a contradiction in terms.

Flavored seltzer has helped many of us avoid sugary sodas. But now all we have to do is drink carbonated water that doesn’t really add anything to our diet. Kind of a missed opportunity, right? Then we found HUZZAH, a fruity seltzer with live probiotics that can support intestinal health. With less than three grams of sugar per can, it is not too sweet and the real fruit flavors come into their own. The raspberry & lemon is tart and tangy, and the juicy pear is soft and fresh, but our favorite is the strawberry & hibiscus for its delicate floral undertones. It’s a refreshing way to top off your lunch, cool off in the late afternoon, or add a few bubbles to dinner while also supporting a healthy bowel.

The taste of our favorite childhood cereals revamped with healthier ingredients – what a wonderful find. Thanks to intelligent ingredients like whey protein and allulose, these cereals have more protein and fewer carbohydrates per serving than conventional cereals and no sugar. Nevertheless, they somehow taste really good and with nine flavors there is something for everyone (we like cocoa and frosted varieties). Recommended accompaniments are sleeping in, pajamas and cartoons on Saturday mornings.

Siete always nails it. It makes some of our favorite chips and a ridiculously good vegan queso, and we appreciate its approach to making beloved foods fit a range of dietary needs without compromising on taste. The brand’s first product was grain-free tortillas, which are fantastic, but they’re small and go better with tacos. The introduction of these burrito-sized tortillas opened the playing field. We’re talking about grain-free breakfast burritos, lunch wraps, homemade healthy crunch wraps (yes, that crunch wrap – it’s a good concept that becomes a great thing when made with better ingredients), and even this viral one TikTok tortilla hack.

Our favorite grain-free fresh pasta comes from Cappello’s, so we had a pretty good feeling about the grain-free frozen pizza crust. It’s crispy, nutty, chewy, and not at all doughy – everything You want a pizza. While there are ready-made pizzas to take away, we like all of the customization options that come with the bare crust. Get a bunch of these cakes along with a variety of toppers for a DIY pizza party spread that people of all diets can enjoy.

A chocolate-coated nut is a first-class snack for movie nights, road trips and the dreaded 3pm break-in. Now we are realistic snackers: we know that a treat is a pleasure, and we are not looking for a wellness miracle in one candy coated Sleeve. Nevertheless, we are impressed by the almond pieces from Hu Chocolate. It’s a dairy-free chocolate with coconut sugar that’s just the right balance between bitter and sweet. There is also sea salt that makes any dessert better.
