Sarah Moulton talks about the best items at the summer Fancy Food Show.
The Fancy Food Show showcases specialty edibles from around the world. Currently in its 55th year, the show has brought thousands of good eats and beverages to New York City. Everything from cheese to tea and organic products has found its way to this year's display.
"Good Morning America" food editor Sara Moulton dropped by and scoured the aisles for the best in new and tasty products. Check out the links below to learn more about the food spotlighted on today's show and click here to learn more about the Fancy Food Show.
One flavor that's popping up everywhere -- in juices, in gelatos, in salad dressings -- is blood orange. The blood orange is native to Italy and Spain. And when you peel it, the orange is actually purple in color. It's adding a tart kick to many different foods.
Panko, which is a type of bread crumb used in Japanese cooking, is another trend. A delicious combination at the food fair paired panko with chocolate in what was kind of like a chocolate-covered pretzel or chocolate croissant. It was from Chuao Chocolatier, retails for around $6, and can be found at Whole Foods or Cost Plus World Market.
Another trend is that many of the companies are finding great ways to give back. With many, you're not just buying gum, a granola bar or a bottle of water, you're also giving to charity -- so you can feel good about that purchase.
Baconnaise
It's bacon mayonnaise, and it has fewer calories than bacon and mayo. The regular has 10 fewer calories per serving than the leading regular mayo brands. Also, if you put it on your sandwich instead of three medium slices of bacon, you save 30 calories.
It's about $5 per bottle and available at grocery stores nationwide.
