Our Favorite Healthy Packaged Foods

If a stroll down the aisles of your supermarket is enough to make your head spin—So many boxes! So many claims! So many…options!—we get it. The rows are stacked with so many foods that it can be downright stupefying. That's why we decided to bring back our popular Healthy Food Awards. We know, just like you do, that many so-called health foods are sugar and salt bombs in disguise. But amid those bad-for-you foods are some stellar ones. And we found the absolute best of them.

Get tips to avoid the supermarket fat traps, from the Eat This Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide.
