flavour of "diète" ???

Explanation:
To my mind, "diète" has connotations of deprivation and suffering, something I imagine is far removed from the writer's intention!

That, at least, is how it sounds to my foreign ears of only 24 years' Gallicism. Maybe the natives could confirm whether (or not) "diète" has a severe "médicalisé" image that, to my ears at least, "régime" and, therefore, "diet" do not.

If so, whether the connotations need be translated in the English is another issue, of course.

reinvigorate your taste buds and your health

Explanation:
Depending on the previous sentence, the sense of this sentence is 'Choose/try organic Mediterranean food to reinvigorate/refresh your taste buds and your health.' Be careful of 'diet' - is it a diet or a way of eating? Good luck.

Get the best of great taste and health

Explanation:
faire le plein= means to fill your car up with gas...BUT, in English...HERE, I would use...GET YOUR FILL OF..or FILL UP ON .but that is not the best sounding, most snappy way to say it...I think the snappiest is:

FINAL: GET BEST OF GREAT TASTE AND HEALTH
