Inside my truffle hunting adventure — winter’s best-kept foodie secret

The Manual, November ‘25

The text showed up around 7 p.m. on a Thursday night in late February. I had been loosely communicating with a truffle hunter named Ava, who, like any good forager or fungus seeker, had been pretty cryptic. The message read: “Can you join me on a hunt tomorrow at 9:10 a.m. at the Walgreens with $50 for the land owner?”

The answer was a resounding yes. A few minutes passed after I replied and she shared the address of the site, opting to go straight to the patch instead of meeting at the drug store. “Do not share with anyone!!!!”

We met at 9:10 a.m., somewhere in the Willamette Valley. The area is mostly known for its booming wine scene and patchwork of farms and open roads. Evergreens stand tall in just about every direction you look, and there’s a freshness to the place that’s distinctly Pacific Northwest.

the 2025 men’s health food awards

Men’s Health, February ‘25

AS POLITICIANS CLASH with Big Food over additives in packaged products, we rounded up the best new supermarket stars from the past year that are already minimally processed, totally good for you, and incredibly delicious.

What makes a food the best, anyway? We looked for products that are high in muscle-building protein, stomach-filling fiber, and heart-healthy fats, yet also low in added sugars. This year, we also zeroed in on short ingredient lists with few to no unpronounceable words. And we made sure to taste-test everything. (Tough job, right?)
