Bloggers pick their favorite natural products

Cave Man Foods Chicken Bites, Sweet & Smoky: I like having jerky as a snack but don't always like how tough it is. These chicken bites were a good size and very tender. They make a great protein-packed snack. I'm already looking up where I can buy them!
Wilde Snacks Chicken Chips: This was by far the most innovative product I saw at Expo West. Tastes like a thin potato chip but it's not a potato chip — it's made with chicken! These gluten-free, grain-free chips pack 15 grams of protein per serving. They come out this summer and I am really looking forward to it!
Nutiva Liquid Coconut Oil: Another trend I noticed on the show floor was liquid versions of solid oils like coconut oil and ghee. On a hot summer day, my coconut oil looks like this but otherwise I have to melt it first. Nutiva launched a liquid coconut oil at the show and this is soon to be a staple in my kitchen!
Fourth & Heart Ghee Oil Cooking Spray: I was introduced to this brand two years ago at Expo West and have loved seeing them grow. This year, they debuted a grass-fed ghee oil and ghee oil cooking spray. The cooking spray is the first clean cooking spray I've seen on the market. No more having to melt ghee to grease a pan. I'm sold!
Mikey's Sliced Bread: I've been a fan of Miley's grain-free English muffins and was blown away by their paleo-inspired sliced bread. This product isn’t new, but it was new to me. Each slice has 5 grams of carbs and 5 grams of protein. This product exceeded all my expectations — I can't believe a grain-free bread can taste this good!
