Season after season of Shark Tank has taught us one thing when it comes to food products on the show: While most of the Sharks consider themselves healthy and active, they don’t tend to love the good-for-you products quite as much as, say, Wicked Good Cupcakes. (Not that most people could blame them when they’re faced with some of the out-of-the-box food offerings.)
Every so often, however, products that are truly as good for our tastebuds as our waistlines make their way into the tank. Whether or not they end up with a deal, the sharks can’t help but give their stamps of approval.
Here’s a look at the standout healthy food products, all featured on Shark Tank, to load your pantry and fridge with.
