We tried batches of recipes this year, and our taste buds rejoiced. Whether it was a juicy burger, a chocolaty recovery smoothie or a fall pumpkin treat, one thing is for sure—we ate well in 2017.

That's largely in thanks to our friends at feedfeed, who provided us with the best of the best when it comes to food all year long.
