The Pinellas Trail is my personal paradise, and The Foodie Labs (515 22nd St S Suite 130) is a bustling food hall located off the cyclist and pedestrain path. This culinary hub is home to a variety of exciting food concepts such as Bagel Babe, Shaner’s Smoke Sesh, and the increasingly popular A Good Human plant-based kitchen.
A Good Human has quickly established itself as a plant-based haven, offering an array of grab-and-go meals that are not only delicious but also health-conscious. Committed to using no refined sugars, no preservatives, and all non-GMO ingredients, A Good Human ensures that their offerings are as wholesome as they are flavorful. For those with dietary restrictions, they provide a range of gluten-free options as well.

For those who can’t make it to the food hall, A Good Human’s products are also available at several locations across the region, including Abby’s in Tampa, Chamberlins in Lakeland and Orlando, multiple Earth Origins locations, and St. Pete’s beloved Rollin’ Oats.
