I knew there was something I left out for my Fourth of July posts - snacks! Of course, you all served fruit and veggies and healthy things to everyone at your picnics and beach outings, right? If you’re in the market for organic snacks that are not scary to give to your kids on a regular basis, here are two finds that have made permanent space in our pantry!
Snikiddy Snacks are organic, free of hydrogenated oils and high-fructose corn syrup, are low in sugar, kosher, and pesticide-free. We tried the Mac n’ Cheese Puffs and the Chocolate Chipper cookies. Let me just say, they didn’t last very long. The cheese puffs are gluten free (in all flavors), so they’re safe for celiac kids, and the cookies are the only commercially available cookies made without refined sugar. But really, they’re just so yummy, and super kid-friendly! Snikiddy can be found at Whole Foods and now at SuperTarget, so they’re surely easy to find. If you can make it home without devouring them, let me know your secret!
If you’re looking for juice alternatives, Honest Kids (from the makers of Honest Tea) have awesome flavors like Goodness Grapeness, Berry Berry Good Lemonade, and my daughter’s favorite, Tropical Tango Punch. Honest Kids have at least half of the sugar of regular juice boxes (and actually have LESS sugar than the Mott’s for Tots my girls also drink). They do contain organic cane sugar, while the Mott’s for Tots is unsweetened, but all other ingredients are all natural and USDA organic. Honest Kids packs also come in recyclable boxes, instead of plastic wrap. And check out their events blog for pictures of Honest Tea with all their fans!
