Methodology

Every best-of list on Food Bag Today is built from a structured product model, not free text — so scores and verdicts stay consistent and comparable.

• Stated criteria. Each category defines the axes that matter, each with a weight.
• Per-criterion scores. We score every product on each criterion; the overall score is the weighted average.
• Earned picks. “Our pick” is an editorial verdict from the scores — never sold, never tied to affiliate payout.
• No fabricated data. We show “last updated” and never put a year in the title.
• Quality gate. A list is only indexed once it has enough scored products, pros/cons, a written methodology and disclosed links.
