50 Small Grocery Brands You Might Not Have Heard of, but Should Definitely Try in 2022

While there are plenty of tried-and-true big brands we’ve loved for years (Campbell’s, Land O’Lakes, and Rao’s, for example), we get super inspired when we learn about small ones that we hadn’t heard of before. And let’s face it — supporting small businesses has never been more important than it is right now. So with the fresh start of the new year, we thought we’d take a fresh look at groceries. We rounded up 50 small brands that we thought you might not have heard of before and are 1,000 percent worth a try.

Of course, you might already know about a bunch of these (good for you!) and there are countless more that aren’t on this list (feel free to add suggestions in the comments at the end of the post!). It’s just a jumping-off point to get us all thinking small (in addition to big!) in 2022.

Greg and Gabi met in college, which, besides childhood, is a prime cereal-eating era. Post-graduating (and a previous business), they experimented for more than a year to create a cereal “inspired by the flavors and nostalgia of Saturday-morning-cartoon cereal, but upgraded for a 21st-century consumer.” Start your day (or end it!) with any one of their 10 flavors, including Fruity, Cookies & Cream, Frosted, Blueberry, Peanut Butter, Cocoa, Cinnamon, and Maple Waffle, plus limited-edition Gingerbread and Original.

These climate-friendly crackers, founded by Julia Collins, are made with heirloom wheat and sunflower oil that come from regenerative farms, which prioritize healthy soil. Available in three flavors — Rosemary Garlic, Sea Salt Sourdough (say that three times fast!), and Tomato Basil — they’re delicious with just the right amount of crunch and come packaged in 100% recycled cardboard and recyclable plastic (although we hear at-home compostable packaging is in the works).

You might have caught co-founder Jay Shetty talking about Sama Tea with Ellen (yes, that Ellen) in October. If not, here’s what you need to know: He, along with his wife, Radhi Devlukia-Shetty, created these teas to help balance our minds, bodies, and hearts, and also as a daily reminder to soak up all of life’s moments. You can also shop by tea type (black, green, herbal) and caffeine level (levels range from zero to three), or purchase a one-time sample box with four varieties: Protect & Support, Awaken & Energize, Focus & Clarity, and Calm & Relax.

Cleveland Kitchen is synonymous with fermented foods. Based in, you guessed it, Cleveland, Ohio, the company makes incredible-tasting sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, dressings, and marinades using the finest ingredients.

Where’s the beef … coming from? In 2022, that is the question. Teton Waters Ranch partners with ranchers in the U.S., Australia, and New Zealand who provide certified-humane (via Humane Farm Animal Care), 100% grass-fed, grass-finished beef through the practice of regenerative agriculture. So next time you’re in the market for hot dogs, breakfast and dinner sausages, burger blends, and more, you know where to find the beef.

Buy: Teton Waters Ranch Grilling Sampler Pack, $54.99 for 26 sausages, bratwursts, and hot dogs

These small-batch Japanese barbecue sauces are inspired by founder Justin Gill’s family’s sauces. It took him six years to bring a “true and sound representation of the sauce” that his family made to market. Since then, Bachan, which means “granny” in Japanese, has expanded to four varieties: Original, Hot & Spicy, Gluten-Free, and Yuzu (new last fall and already a best seller).

If Taste Republic was a newly established country, we’d gladly live there. (It’s not. We can’t.) But. But! What we can do is enjoy the company’s gluten-free, fresh pastas by the bowlful. Based in Madison, Wisconsin, the pastas, which match the taste and texture of traditional pastas, are all certified gluten-free and also available in grain-free and vegan varieties. Last November, they even launched the first fresh, gluten-free ravioli to include Beyond Meat. What will 2022 bring?

Buy: Taste Republic Fresh Gluten-Free Pasta Variety Pack, $49.99 for 6 (9-ounce) pastas

It started as a wholesale brand serving top restaurant and hospitality groups back in 2015, but since then, Mochidoki has gone DTC (direct-to-consumer). We call that a win. Using only the highest-quality ingredients, the company makes imaginative Japanese-inspired desserts. The mochi ice cream is available in signature (Chocolate, Espresso, Matcha, Red Bean) and seasonal flavors (Seoul Cookie, Milk & Cereal, Cake Batter), and includes vegan offerings (Chocolate Hazelnut, Lychee, Passion Fruit, Coconut).

Loisa is an homage to “Loisaida,” the Spanglish name for the Lower East Side barrio of downtown New York City (the home city of its founders) and one of the hearts of local Latin culture and cuisine. The company, which makes high-quality, proudly flavored Latin foods, started with organic versions of “the most famous Latin seasoning pair: Sazón y Adobo.” Since then, the brand has come out with even more pantry staples, including sauces, spices, and ready-to-heat rice.

These Za’atar Pita Chips are the mother of all chips. (No seriously, the original recipe, which was created by founding member, mother, and grandmother, Victoria, is called “The Mother Chip.”) They’re thin, crisp, and baked in small batches with extra-virgin olive oil and a custom za’atar spice blend. And there’s more to come: Smoke Tomato and Sea Salt are “coming soon,” according to the site.

What began as a zero-waste restaurant in SoHo founded by Chef Camilla Marcus, has evolved into a line of feel-good provisions.

Like the name suggests, Seed + Mill makes seed-based foods, including tahini and halva.

The company also partners with small purveyors to create delicious, flavorful products you’ve never had before. Exhibit A: The Organic Za’atar Tahini and Organic Chocolate Date Tahini, which you can sample in a set, along with Organic Tahini.

Sisters Vanessa and Kim Pham launched their business during the pandemic … and, almost instantly, had a 2,000-person wait list. Omsom — a Vietnamese phrase meaning noisy, rambunctious, riotous — was started to bring “bring proud, loud Asian flavors to your fingertips any day of the week.” These pantry shortcuts contain sauces, aromatics, and seasonings you need for specific Asian recipes, including Japanese Yuzu Misoyaki and Korean Spicy Bulgogi.

Rooted in nostalgia and Georgia — the peach state — these brown sugar lemon-aids are made from fresh fruit and natural ingredients. The Original Brown Sugar Lemon-Aid is available year-round, along with a handful of rotating seasonal flavors. Pro tip: They all go great with a little Champagne.

Like its name suggests, Hayden Flour Mills is all about the grain. The company is devoted to fresh grains that are simply stone-milled, an old-world process that allows the flavor and personality of the wheat to shine through. The flour is currently milled on Sossaman Farms in Queen Creek — the same farm where the majority of its grains are grown. Beyond heritage flours and grains (including a limited-release collab with Masienda), the company also makes a variety of crackers, pancake mixes, and cereals.

Consider hens are raised on small, regenerative farms according to Certified Humane standards: free to roam on open pastures, living in symbiosis with diverse species of pollinators, animals, and plants. The eggs, which promise vibrant, intensely hued yolks, are gathered each morning — just hours after being freshly laid. Also, we don’t suggest buying things just for the packaging, but can we talk about this packaging?

Buy: Consider Pastures Grade A Eggs, $6.49 for 1 dozen

While many brands opt for uniformity, you’ll find no two banner butter packages look the same. And that’s proudly on purpose. This slow-churned, small-batch butter is hand cut and made with cream from hormone-free, grass-fed Georgia cows, only after the cream has spent “many, many hours” ripening (this ripening process allows good bacteria to form, which gives the butter its delicious butteriness). Available in seven flavors, including Unsalted, BBQ, Roasted Garlic, Dark Chocolate, and Basil & Parsley, there’s no limit to what you can do with it.

Buy: Banner Butter Mix + Match Pack, $42 for 6 (5-ounce) butters

Yiayia, which means “granny” in Greek, is the brainchild of Beetroot Design Group and Ergon Foods, a retailer that sources products from a network of small, independent food artisans in Greece and brands them “to meet modern-day standards.” Together, they created Yiayia and Friends, which makes a variety of cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oils, homemade rusks and biscuits, aged balsamic vinegars flavored with fruit, and more. They’re almost too beautiful to open … almost.

For Jen and Caleb, founding Xiao Chi Jie was their way of connecting with their family’s history. After spending years in the kitchen in the name of dumpling research, the now-married duo make a variety of soup dumplings and crafted sauces.

Fun Fact: The term “Fishwife” dates back to the 16th century, and originally referred to the daughters or wives of fishermen who sold fish at the market. It later evolved into a gendered insult, but it has since become synonymous with ethically sourced, premium, delicious tinned seafood, courtesy of this company. The Smoky Trio, which includes Smoked Rainbow Trout, Smoked Atlantic Salmon, Smoked Albacore Tuna, features fish that’s brined in extra-virgin olive oil and smoked in small batches over natural wood at a fifth-generation, family owned cannery in Washington State.

Buy: The Fishwife Smoky Trio, $27.99 for 3 (3.5 ounce) tins

These boldly colored boxes with their retro-looking font caught our eye, but with this mac and cheese company, it’s what’s on the inside that really got us clicking “add to cart.” Launched in November with four flavors — Mover & Shaker (cacio e pepe-inspired mac), Twist My Parm (asiago and Parmesan with spirals), Cheddy Mac (creamy cheddar and macaroni), and Shella Good (aged white cheddar and shells) — Goodles noodles are packed with fiber and protein and devoid of any artificial flavors and preservatives.

Plus, the sprinkles have super-fun names like Full of Heart, Rainbow Starfetti, and Dinomite.

But we wanted to give them one more mention.

Founded by Ashley Rouse, a trained chef who loves to experiment with flavors and create the unexpected, these spoonable jams are handmade in small batches (they’re less thick because they’re made with minimal sugar, and skip the pectin and preservatives). They also make sauces, which alongside the jams are great for cooking, baking, cocktails, and more.

This vegetable umami is an all-natural seasoning sauce. A three-month fermentation of soybeans creates the base that’s then blended with simmered vegetable broth. The result: a shortcut to flavor. (Some of the best restaurants in the world already know this!) It’s vegan, gluten-free, organic, and a great plant-based alternative for bouillon, concentrated stocks, fish sauce, or dashi.
