done Costco now we're at Whole Foods

really good so what we're going to do is

quality stuff in your body and your
family's body I do also want you to

don't want to and my link down below
gets you 30% off your first order and a
free gift and I will type out a list of
all my favorite Thrive Market food items
and personal care and put it down below
below so check out Thrive Market less
talking more shopping let's go I always
talk about how the wall of bread can be
very confusing what to choose what's
Bobby approved well Whole Foods has two
of the best ones in the business and the
second one is the one I eat almost every
day this right here and it's on sale
until the 16th so that's a good thing is
sprouted grain bread by Silver Hills you
think of sprouted grains you think of
the OG like Ezekiel which a lot of
people don't like because it's very
healthy and car card board like this is
kid approved so this is Silver Hills
that wasn't me I swear it's made with
Organic sprouted grain bread and real
grains the thing is it has sugar here
but two slices have two gam I can live
with a gram of sugar sometimes when you
have the yeast and need something to
feed on a gram of sugar is not bad
whereas the one that just fell on the
floor maybe that was the gods telling me
Bobby to compare it cuz this has 5 G of
cane sugar per slice SCE this has 1 G
per slice so this is fantastic make your
kids um peanut butter and jellies or
grilled cheese with that and my favorite
that I use almost every day is right
over here you have to come to the
freezer section but I love this keto
bread from a Florida based company based
culture either the sourdough bread or
the cinnamon raisin one makes a mean
keto French toast it doesn't have any
glue it's paleo it's keto it's made with
water eggs and cashews almond flour and
coconut oil it's a little expensive but
it goes on sale once in a while lad up
keep it in the freezer it's unbelievable
the nice thing about shopping at Whole
Foods the snack aisle is amazing because
most chips including the ones here
unfortunately are cooked and processed
inflammatory canola sunflower safflower
but if you know how to look like this
you're going to find amazing snacks for
you and your family and your kids these
are relatively new ciete makes Puffs
they're puffy lentil based chips that
are delicious and this flavor is
unbelievable it's not on sale right now
but $4.49 for nondairy queso how do they
do that and how do they make a Bobby
approved well it's a lento flour puff
cooked in avocado oil like Ci always
does but the seasoning is nutritional
yeast AKA vegan parano onion powder
tomato powder beet powder ground p uh
dates unbelievable stuff both this and
the Chile lime is amazing I saw a big
bag of the chili lime at Costco last
week literally
half the price of this it's unbelievable
but let's say you want a potato chip
pick up any potato chip like this new
one here that the new thing for 2024 I
think is eco-friendly so compostable bag
or donating profits to the environment
which is nice but I care about more what
goes in your pie hole and when it's
vegetable oil like canola oil sunflower
oil maybe focus more about ingredients
instead of compostable bags luckily
right below it on sale boom sweet potato
chips cooked in best-in-class avocado
oil coconut oil sweet potato chips
literally has an amazing flavor because
of that coconut oil on Flavor 2 for 630
or ruffles have ridges they do but also
horrible ingredients Boulder has ridges
and cooked in avocado oil but this is
why you read ingredients or scan it with
the Bobby approved app because I like
sea salt and and Cracked Pepper but when
I read the ingredients they also put
cane sugar and safflower oil in there so
not to that and just as a bonus if you
come down here into the salsa section c
came out with some new Salsas lately
this is literally one of the best Salsas
I've ever tasted it's salsa soada it's
made with olive oil but they combine
smok it Chipotles with dates and other
seasoning oh my God on sale no not on
sale but totally worth it this is one of
my favorite cookies on the market and
it's Bobby approved it's cete I think
last year they came out with Al Lanta
cookies Mexican shortbread mexican
chocolate with perfect ingredients you
dunk these in some milk while watching
some TV oh I've started watching bookie
on Max with Sebastian Maniscalco amazing
this is a great treat for that cuz it's
a gluten-free cookie which is nice it's
made with almond flour tapioca flour but
the oil or the fat is coconut oil it's
sweetened with coconut sugar it also has
orange peel powder and vanilla bean
extract classy AF and five cookies only
has five gr I've added sugar a gram of
coconut sugar per cookie is amazing it's
$529 highly recommend these cookies and
you can find them everywhere but they're
on sale specifically this one some other
ones have palm oil the almond flour
chocolate chip cookies with perfect
ingredients is like a Bobby approved
chips oo they're delicious if you need a
milk to dunk this in I'm waiting for it
to come to retail but it's not here yet
Kiki milk it's my favorite milk they
have macadamia nut milk on Thrive Market
you can buy just one jug if you want to
try it out it's the most nutrient-dense
clean plant-based milk without gums oils
emulsifiers and they have all this stuff
too if you click my link down below you
get 30% off your order and a free gift
so check it out Whole Foods is one of
the only places to get not vital Farms
the 18 pack of the organic pasture rais
vital Farms eggs it went up a dollar
recently it's about $12.99 sometimes
it's $1.99 I love this because number
one I only eat pasture raised exit home
and the good news is you can get get
pasture raised everywhere Aldi has it
Walmart has it pasture raised means
these birds live outside primarily and
they're free to get sun and eat bugs and
worms and I've made many videos in the
past but when you see things like free
range or cage free it's 100% marketing
gimmicks these are chickens that never
leave their warehouse free range means
they could have a small 10-ft patio but
they're never free to forage and be
outside and nutritionally speaking
pasture eggs are better for you now
let's do some math here these are just
organic freerange eggs for
$5.99 these are organic pasture raised
eggs for 18 at $12.99 so it's a little
more expensive but in my opinion these
are great if you want to save a little
bit of money you can get the black
carton the only difference is the feed
is conventional meaning the chickens
still have GMO corn and soy but to be
honest I'd still rather have these than
free range organ IC eggs that never ever
ever ever ever ever go outside this
one's going to show you the best
dairyfree cream cheese and the best
Dairy based cottage cheese this cream
cheese by kite Hill is one of my
favorites I think it has a texture that
is spoton to regular Dairy but with
best-in-class ingredients I love the
Chive cheese and when you scan what the
Bobby approved act or just read the
ingredients they're perfect there's no
natural flavors there's no BS
ingredients and yes you might see zanam
gum here but truth be told even some
Dairy based cream cheeses have it when
you lose the dairy you need a little bit
of gum to bring things together I'm
totally fine with that the only one I'm
not fine with is the strawberry flavor
cuz this one has natural flavors and
sugar now cottage cheese had its moment
in 2023 people are making viral recipes
with it and that's a good thing because
cottage cheese is incredibly good and
good for you and good cultures in my
opinion makes the best one why it's
actually hard to find organic cottage
cheese organic's important that means
the cattle are eating a non GMO feed but
what I love about this is that it's
double cream and organic with 14 g of
protein per serving and when you look at
the ingredients on the back here as
clean as can be with living bacteria in
here never ever when you have good
quality Dairy get lowfat or reduced fat
what lives in the fat the healthy
omega-3 fatty acid so when you have good
organic dairy or grass fed Dairy get
full fat when you have double cream it's
indulgent it's organic it has living
bacteria and it's so culinary um divers
qu what does that mean it's so
culinarily diverse thank you Le and
Bobby approved at $579 well worth it I'm
going to show you my top picks in the
breakfast aisle here starting with
oatmeal and obviously if you want to get
regular organic oatmeal that's fine but
very few of the flavored cups are Bobby
approved except for the OG purely
Elizabeth does it right almost all of
the time this is a vanilla pcan flavor a
gluten-free organic oats sweetened with
coconut sugar real vanilla bean powder
grass-fed collagen alo alo that is
nutrient den and clean as can be but do
read the ingredients or hold on you scan
it with the chart topping Bobby approved
app here this flavor the blueberry
walnut is going to come up not approved
why when you click on see more sunflower
oil and cane sugar coat the blueberries
not ideal so I'll put that one back but
you'll plenty of choices there and when
it comes to
cereal here this is in my pantry right
now you've heard me talk about seven
Sundays Paleo cereal in the past but
they have a new oat cereal that is a
clean Bobby approved version of Cheerios
this is super fruity think of it like 2D
fruity Cheerios made with glyphosate
free upcycled oat and non GMO corn
that's how you get that crunchy feeling
with real cherries and strawberries
tossed maple syrup and coconut oil
unbelievable all of these are on sale
all are Bobby approved and great and
remember listen it's very difficult
especially on the cereal aisle when
you're inou at the grocery store if I
can find my phone scan it with the Bobby
approved app it's my free app that's
currently in the top 50 on the app store
downloaded on the Apple App Store the
Google Play Store you scan any barcode
in the grocery store it tells you if
it's good bad highlights the bad
ingredients and tells you a better
alternative it's like having me go
shopping with you not all pastas
specifically gluten-free pastas are made
the same and this is my favorite brand
jovio but you got to be careful cuz
sometimes when you reach for other ones
there's nutrient-dense gluten-free
grains and then non- nutrient-dense ones
and when corn is the primary ingredient
and then brown rice and then quinoa
flour corn is a simple starch a simple
that basically has no nutrition so I
want nutrient
dense gluten-free grains like this these
are elbows made of 100% organic brown
rice flour actually made in Tuscany
really nutrient really delicious when I
eat carbs I want my carbs to count and
this taste great they actually also came
out with this recently organic
Gluten-Free mac and cheese tastes great
Rose loves it and this is probably the
first one on the market that's
gluten-free that's perfectly Bobby
approved cuz the organic cheese sauce
truly has just organic cheddar cheese
organic buttermilk no BS preservatives
with the brown rice pasta that's yeah if
you come up to the front of the store my
favorite chocolate treat is in the
refrigerator section it's a midday
Square this cookie dough one and the
peanut butter one are amazing but this
is isn't just a Bobby approved chocolate
Square it's a functional chocolate with
best in-class ingredients functional
because it has 6 g of protein and 4 G of
fiber per bar but but also it only has
seven net carbs I think this has six net
carbs but when you talk about
ingredients you're talking about sweeten
with coconut sugar maple syrup it has
olive oil it has molasses it has
Jerusalem arter choke fiber this square
is one of my favorite things you can get
one for $2.79 I highly recommend it in
the past organic chicken was usually the
best you can do at a grocery store but
to me this is super exciting because now
you're finding pasture raised chickens
at a lot of grocery stores and that's a
good thing just like the eggs I talked
about earlier pasture arrays whole
chickens or chicken parts is far
superior why because organic chickens
are nice they have a non-GMO feed but
still they never go outside pasture
raised chickens only live outside plus
see what this says right here it's slow
grown Heritage breed what does that mean
it means a lot of chickens at the market
today are hybrid to grow very fat very
quickly so they can go to slaughter
quickly quicker equals more money slow
grown takes more time but they tastier
Heritage breed means they haven't been
Frankenstein and they're the same ones
that your grandpappy ate many many years
ago if you compare the size of these
pasture rised Birds to most they're way
smaller the flavor is better the texture
is better and nutritionally speaking
pasture raised chicken is better too
this one with the thing that fell off is
$4.99 a pound but it looks like whole
fuds has her own pasture raised chicken
at 3.99 a pound and last week I was at
Sprouts they have um pasture race
chicken from pasture Bird that's great
too when you have the choice pasture
race chicken always if you live in the
Southeast region of the states come over
to Whole Foods in the butcher counter
why because see this bacon see this
sausage this is not your normal bacon
and sausage this is pasture raised pork
bacon and sausage from a farm in Georgia
called Thompson Farms who practices
rotational farming non GMO pasture raay
with pork it's unbelievable the bacon
good it's a little fatty for my taste
but the pork sausages that are seasoned
and spiced perfectly at $6.99 are
amazing so once again if you live in the
Southeast ask your butcher if they have
the pasture race PK from Thompson Farms
if they do grab it this is one of my
favorite treats that's keto so this is
basically a keto almond stuffed Nut
Butter Cup by evolve they have good
chocolate bars but this is unbelievable
when I first saw the ingredients I was
blown away cuz it's made with organic
almonds cacao artichoke fiber which is
really good and lowers the carbs cacao
butter a touch of monk fruit not too
sweet at all and that's it how do you
calculate nut carbs 7 total
carbohydrates minus the fiber of five is
two net carbs per they're so good
they're indulgent and they're a little
expensive but they're on sale this is
nice it kind of gets that Mounds feeling
with the coconut but almond butter or of
course the one that's out of out of
stock right now Hazel not my favorite is
fantastic all right friends that is it
for the top 10 things to buy here at
Whole Food in 2024 and I think that's it
for the series like I said in the
previous video we will not be going to
Trader Joe's they are on my band list
because they've kicked me out all these
years and been quite rude about it so
they will not get any love uh but
speaking of Love do check out
thrivemarket.com using my promo link
