Last weekend I went to the 30th Annual Wellness Show in Vancouver. My intention was to discover interesting, tasty food products that are also good for our bodies. And I wasn’t disappointed. In no particular order, here are 7 food products that I sampled and enjoyed, and would recommend you all to give it a try. They should be available at local health- and wellness-forward grocery stores such as Nesters Market, Whole Foods and City Avenue Market, or online on their own websites.

And I do snack sometimes, especially at around 3pm on a work day, so in a way I felt that I fit within its target market.
Lesley Stowe's Raincoast Cookies Collection
There are three varieties of Raincoast Cookies. Each of them is packed with ingredients like chicory root, flax seed and chia, as well as dried fruit and nuts.

At the same time, they are high in carbs and sugar; each cookie is individually packaged, weighs 75g and has somewhere around 300 calories.

The Apricot, Ginger and Slivered Almond cookie has more than what the name suggests. (more…)
