Did you know there are around 50,000 products on supermarket shelves? That’s 40,000 more than were sitting there in the 1990s. It’s no wonder grocery shopping can sometimes feel like finding a needle in a haystack. At HFG, our team of dietitians is very familiar with our local supermarket. We spend hours walking the aisles, scanning food labels in search of healthy new products to recommend to you, our readers. And at this time of year we’re exceptionally busy. Next month we announce the 2019 Healthy Food Guide Award winners. This requires hours and hours of work, sifting through hundreds of entries as well as searching high and low in stores for the healthiest products across 12 major categories. Our dietitian, Melissa, snapped 1700 photos of products on her phone in just…
