Megan : Last weekend, I had the opportunity to attend one of the most insider food experiences that anyone in the industry could wish for⦠Summer Fancy Food Show. Here, vendors from around the world journey to the Javits Center to peddle their wares to bloggers, restaurants, and distributors.
Move over Costco, the free samples at this place are bringing all the bloggers to the yard. Bare in mind, I attended this while on Day 23 of the Whole 30 diet, so my perspective was super focused on what I was able to actually put in mouth while sauntering up and down the endless aisles. Marcie : First, we started at the Calabria Di Gusto booth, and sampled some amaro and amaretto. All spirits are coming from Calabria in Italy. My favorite was the Vecchio Amaro del Capo.
And they were kind enough to send me home with a bottle, and I made an incredible Negroni with it! Megan : I could not be more pleased to hear that this brand is opening a store right near where I work on the Upper East Side. ManCan is wine in a can, and they feature red, white and sparkling styles. They are sourcing high-quality wine from Northern California and blending to perfect flavor. Megan : You will not get enough of this Chosen Foods Avocado Oil Mayo⦠so much better than regular mayonnaise with the same zesty taste.
This is a must try! Marcie : Next, we stopped at Epic Provisions, a Paleo-dieters dream. They make jerky, protein bars, and bone broth. All their products are soy, dairy, and gluten free. I love their bone broth and their jerky. They practice sustainable farming and use the best ingredients. Megan : This brand inspires me to do my next Whole 30! Rebel Kitchen makes drinks that are suitable for vegetarians and vegans that are delicious and nutritious.
The chocolate milk is amazing and made with spring water, organic coconut milk, organic date nectar, and organic cacao. Marcie: After some wine tasting, we needed some vegetables in our life.
