WFC's largest online recipe contest,
The Taste of America Challenge (TOA) is once again helping Food Champs across the nation find their way back to Food Sport's largest event!

TOA entries will be accepted from

June 1 - July 5

Winners will be announced on July 31

Click To Enter

Below are this year's selections of America's unique and localized brands to use for your TOA entry! By featuring these brands in your recipes and pictures, you'll have the opportunity to win a Free Golden Ticket to WFC 2017!

You will notice that two unique hashtags are affiliated with each featured product. These are the featured product hashtags that each participant is required to include in their TOA Instagram entry. The inclusion of both hashtags completes your TOA entry. Remember: The Top 5 most liked Instagram entries will receive a WFC prize package (ERV: $300)!

Best of luck to all TOA cooks, competitors and chefs! We can't wait to see who will be joining us at the 6th Annual World Food Championships in beautiful Orange Beach, Alabama!
