Expo West was one of the first major conferences cancelled because of COVID-19 fears. I understood and thought it was the right decision but I hated missing the opportunity to check out what’s new from some of my favorite companies. Some of the companies I was supposed to meet with sent me new products and refreshed products to check out. I’m going to share these with you and then share some of the goodies!
I’ve been going to Expo West since 2016. If you haven’t seen my recaps or giveaways over the past few years, it’s like the Super Bowl for natural products. I make many great connections that last the whole year and years to follow. [If you’re interested, here are my posts from 2016 (day 1 and recap), 2017 (day 1 and day 2), 2018 (day 1 + 2, top trends and day 3) and 2019 (day 1, day 2 and day 3/wrap up).]
I got a ton of great items from some of my favorite brands:
- Union Snacks – Shelf stable charcuterie snacks and new trail mix squares made with fruits, nuts and jerky. Find them on Amazon.
- Angelic Bakehouse – Awesome bread and sprouted grain wraps and new Sweet and Savory Crisps. The crisps are a new fave! Find stores with this link or buy online.
