Scientists are currently cultivating a marine plant that's packed with more nutrients than the trendy green superfood kale. And it naturally tastes like bacon.
Bacon-flavored crackers. Bacon-flavored salad dressing. These are just two of the savory treats that have been created so far using the domesticated strain of dulse (Palmaria palmata), a kind of red algae, or seaweed, that typically grows in the waters along northern Pacific and Atlantic coastlines.
I wonder if this will pass muster with my kosher- and halal-observing friends.

So is there any indication that health food is actually more healthy than average food?
Yes, but not merely from having the label "health food". And especially not from the labels like "low sodium", "low fat", "low carb", or "diet". Basically, what you want to go for are less processed foods that are high in fiber and won't spike your glycemic index.
Actually the advertising as "heath food" makes me sceptical: Is there a drawback they have to compensate with "but it's healthy"?
Usually one or more of price, flavor, convenience, shelf-life. And some of them aren't healthy, either.
