This year’s batch includes 25 brands known well in the natural foods arena but not necessarily on the mainstream stage. Some of the products include Pescavore ahi tuna jerky strips; Quinn gluten-free pretzels; Outstanding Foods PigOut pigless pork rinds; Koia plant-based, vegan protein shakes; and Pop Zero algae oil popcorn.PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA – FEBRUARY 27, 2019: A 7-Eleven convenience store in Palm Springs, California.
