How We Picked the Winners
We asked more than 100 companies to submit their healthiest products -- foods and beverages that are high in protein and fiber and low in fat, saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars. Once the packaged goods arrived at our offices, three top nutritionists -- Anar Allidina, RD, a nutritionist in private practice in New York City; Keri Gans, RD, New York spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association; and Marissa Lippert, RD, author of The Cheater's Diet -- spent hours analyzing the nutrition facts and ingredients label on each to help us determine which deserved a place in our taste tests. Those finalists were then sampled and voted on by dozens of staffers throughout our company.

wow, thank you for sharing about the popcorn, the kids and I have nuked popcorn in various flavors at least x2 a week!I'd hate to think I am slowly poisoning my children...and I think popping the old fashioned way will be a fun experience to share, so , thank you again!

All you need at the grocery store is a trip through the meat/seafood department, the dairy case and an extended stay in the produce department. Sticking to the outskirts of a store always always means you will spend less. Keep a well stocked pantry (flour, salt, sugar, yeast, etc.) and make your own breads, pastas and more. NO fake foods or fake flavors!

8/26/2010 10:43:52 AM Report AbuseI loved this article in your newest issue but do have one complaint - microwave popcorn? Healthy? Not so much....the ingredient used for butter flavoring "Diacetyl" is basically poison. Buy a air-popper instead. They are cheap and deliver a much healthier product. From, a healthy popcorn lover
