How to Choose the Healthiest Canned Foods

Jess, a registered dietitian, helps you choose the healthiest canned foods for your next grocery run. For starters, make sure to buy canned foods that will actually get eaten in your home and not collect dust in the pantry.

I prefer frozen to canned just because the texture of some things like asparagus and mushrooms gets ruined when it sits in liquid

I concur, Im not a dietician but Ive eaten from a lot of cans so take my word for it.

Canned pumpkin, refried beans, sometimes a bean, broth, sweet corn, green beans are the main ones I buy. Pears, pineapples and peaches for dessert or snacks. I've been transitioning to primarily fresh and frozen though. More room for potatoes, bananas, flour and pasta. 😀 The carb closet

Canned foods are yucky. Mushy & flavorless. Why on earth are you promoting them? & most aren't grown organicly.

very few canned veg are good..most are high in salt. Also, don't take advice from a chunky dietician..you know they are not doing a good job
