Celebrities are no longer just fashion icons - they're our party role models, examples of fitness perfection (or not!) and now our gastronomic guides to the hottest, healthiest treats and eats.

Whether dieting, drinking or just plain dining here's a taste of what’s fresh on celebrity platters.

Acai berry
Acai (AH-SAH-EE) is one of the most talked about foods on the planet. With ten times the antioxidants of grapes, twice the antioxidants of blueberries and chock full of vitamins and minerals these Brazilian berries are some of the most nutritious and in demand fruits on the market.

It’s not just the natural goodness packed inside the acai that has attracted stars like Owen Wilson, Denise Richards and surfing legend Kelly Slater; it’s the wild raspberry and chocolate flavour that drives these stars wild.

But if taste and vitamins are still not enough to try these Brazilian treats, scientists have just found that the Acai may actually thwart the growth of certain types of cancers.

Jamba juice
When it comes to dieting, celebs will try almost anything to look their red carpet best and Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson is proof.

Spiffing up those Dreamgirls curves was as easy as replacing daily meals with Jamba Juice smoothies. Jennifer claims that the low-fat protein and nutrient-rich fruits in her favourite Jamba Light and Jamba All-Fruit smoothies helped her lose almost 30 pounds.

And Hudson isn't the only celeb on the Jamba Juice craze, Vanessa Hudgens, Nicole Richie and Mischa Barton are just a few of the countless other celebrities that love this nutritious juice.

Garrett popcorn
Oprah, Halle, TomKat, Beyonce and Bono all agree there is no snack better than Garrett Popcorn. 

This specialty popcorn is made and fawned over in Chicago and is now sold worldwide via the internet ( www.garrettpocorn.com ).  With only four different flavours – Cheesecorn, Plain, Buttery Popcorn and Caramel Crisp – Garrett indulges using simple flavours, privately grown kernels and a no fat, no oil popping process to create a one of a kind popcorn experience.

In 2002, Oprah selected Garrett’s "The Mix" as one of her "Favorite Things" exclaiming, "It is so good! I love when you mix the cheese with the caramel!"
