All the 2019 Products of The Year You Need in Your Pantry - Food & Wine

From ice cream to holistic drinks, these are some of the food and beverage products that impressed consumers this year.

On Friday, Product of the Year—an award voted on by 40,000 consumers nationwide—announced its 2019 winners. Consumers participated in the study to select their favorite products, ranging from home to food and beverage. The winners included ice cream that helps you sleep (yes, really), cold brew pods, and anti-inflammatory healthy drinks. We combed through the full list and highlighted all the items that were innovative, new, and even a little random—the best part? You can order them all online.
