Impossible Foods, the company that makes plant-based meat substitutes, raised $300 million in its latest funding round. Overall, the company has raised more than $750 million thanks to help from investors like Serena Williams, Katy Perry, Bill Gates and Google Ventures. Impossible Foods plans on using the funding to expand the business and hire new employees.

A baby formula delivery startup called Bobbie is promising healthier ingredients. The company was founded by two moms based in the bay area on a mission to find cleaner ingredients. Bobbie's proven European recipes are made with grass-fed dairy ingredients.

If you love candy but want a healthier option, check out SmartSweets. SmartSweets has no added sugar, sugar alcohols or artificial sweeteners. The company says it has raised a total of $6.1 million and can be found in 10,000 stores across the U.S. and Canada.
