"Tuna sandwiches are one of my go-to lunches, and they just got a majorupgrade with Fishwife's Albacore Tuna in Olive Oil. Each can is packed with a high-quality tuna filet under a glossy layer of luscious olive oil. The tuna is tender, buttery, and flakey with a flavor and texture far exceeding any canned tuna I've ever had. If you like it hot, Fishwife also has a spicy version that seasons the fish with hot paprika, cayenne, white pepper, and garlic. I made this tuna into a tuna salad with salty capers, briny olives, and sweet pickles, but you can also enjoy it on its own with chips, on a bed of lettuce with an acidic vinaigrette, or folded into lemon pasta." — Olivia Tarantino, Managing Editor

That's where Chosen Foods' new Chocolate Hazelnut Spread comes in. It has all the nutty, chocolatey flavor I crave, but with almost half the sugar of Nutella, which makes my healthy dessert of chocolate-dipped strawberries even more satisfying." — Tarantino

My pantry is always stocked with backups in case I ever run out of food during cooking, and these refills are a welcome addition to my pantry. They're nitrogen-sealed, meaning the olive oil will stay fresh for longer by preventing oxidation, and perfectly portioned to refill Graza's squeeze bottles." — Tarantino

Sodium: 0 mg
Carbs: 11 g (Fiber: 3 g, Sugar: 5 g)
Protein: 2 g

"I don't really have a sweet tooth, but that doesn't stop me from occasionally craving chocolate. I recently tried Spring & Mulberry's Mulberry Fennel chocolate bar and fell in love. This 72% cacao bar is sweetened with dates—and that's it. Zero refined sugars. Paired with mulberries, the dates add just the right amount of sweetness to complement the licorice flavor of fennel. And perhaps my favorite feature is the3 grams of fiber you get in each serving, which totals 11% of your daily recommended intake of the under-consumed nutrient." — Tarantino
