Pair this creamy dip with your chip of choice for a satisfying snack—and a small serving of cauliflower!
Unpaid Endorsements
Food Network stars gush about their favorite supermarket buys.
Jeni's Ice Cream
Jeni's Ice Cream is a must. The Salty Caramel is unlike anything I've ever had—it's salty, toasty and irresistibly smooth.
—Kardea Brown
Snack Factory Everything Pretzel Crisps
I always need to be stocked up on Snack Factory Everything Pretzel Crisps—I love them with different dips.
—Brooke Williamson
Dan-O's Seasoning
When I'm shopping, I'm thinking about my family! Dan-O's Seasoning is great for adding quick flavor to meals that feed the 10 of us.
—Darnell Ferguson
Chobani Yogurt
I pick up plain Greek yogurt—Chobani or Fage—because yogurt is the duct tape of dairy products! You can use it as a sub-in for many other dairy products.
—Molly Yeh
Rao's Homemade Marinara
Rao's Homemade Marinara is a staple in our house. It's the ultimate multitasker for spaghetti and meatballs or lasagna and it works as pizza sauce in a pinch.

Triscuits
Triscuits are my absolute favorite cracker. I put Dijon mustard, a slice of extra-sharp cheddar cheese and cornichons on top—it's my go-to snack.

These are the groceries our editors grab every time.
Icelandic Provisions Skyr Icelandic Yogurt
"The texture of this yogurt is the perfect balance of thick and smooth, and I can't believe how much protein I'm getting! Plus, skyr dates back to the Vikings, which makes me feel pretty cool."

Heluva Good! French Onion Dip
"If I could choose only one salty snack to eat for the rest of my life, it would be barbecue potato chips with a healthy helping of this French onion dip."

"These pretzels are coated in a seasoning blend that makes it nearly impossible to stop eating them once you've started. They're perfect on their own or dipped in hummus."
—Mariah Schlossmann, Editorial Business Manager
Kerrygold Dubliner Cheese
"This cheese is deliciously nutty, and it's my go-to for quesadillas and grilled cheeses. But my favorite way to eat it? Sliced on a Triscuit—simply perfect!"
—Teri Tsang Barrett, Deputy Food Editor
