About

For a long time, certifications for responsible practices and awards for superior taste have remained distinct – one honors social and environmental responsibility, while the other celebrates craftsmanship and flavor. The Good Food Awards recognizes that truly good food – the kind that brings people together and builds strong, healthy communities – contains all of these ingredients.

Recognizing exceptional food crafters who top the charts in a Blind Tasting and meet the environmental and social responsibility standards of the Good Food Awards, is a meaningful and impactful way we advance the good food movement.

Our standards have been reviewed with the help of Subject Matter Experts, industry groups, and Category Committee Chairs. This ensures that our categories and criteria remain relevant and in alignement with current industry standards and regulations. You can read more about the review process and specific category standard changes here.
