Sweet Snacks

Carman’s have become increasingly popular over the past few years and their range of products has expanded to include protein bars, oat slices, nut bars and other tasty convenience snacks! Today’s review nuts out Carman’s Dark Choc, Coconut and Macadamia Nut Bars.

Tasti boasts to have all your snacking needs covered, whether you like something sweet or you’re crazy about nuts, they will have something to satisfy you and your family. Bliss balls are all the rage right now and being able to buy them pre-packaged is super convenient! But, just how good are their “naturally delicious” products. Let’s see in today’s Chewsday review…

So many requests lately for a review of the Messy Monkeys Fruit bars. Your wish is my command! Today’s Chewsday Review features the Messy Monkeys Strawberry and Apple Snack Bar. How do these compare to other snack or fruit bars? Let’s see…

Today’s Chewsday Review features the LCMs Split Stix Yoghurty bars. When something is described as ‘yoghurty’ I’ve got my rubbish radar beeping insistently!! Remember that I’m not against any food- but I just don’t want people being duped into buying food thinking it’s more nutritious than it really is.

Today’s Chewsday Review features the Milo original snack bar. Milo are the kings of clever marketing, so let’s see if they can get one past me here!

We’re on a bit of a muesli bar theme here, and today’s Chewsday Review features Nature Valley Crunchy Oats & Honey bar. How does it compare to the Carman’s and Mother Earth varieties? Let’s see..

Another Chewsday, another Carman’s Muesli Bar. Today’s review features Carman’s Fruit Free Muesli Bars. Are they any better than the fruit containing ones?

Today’s food product is Carman’s original fruit and nut muesli bars. These contain almonds and pecans so aren’t appropriate for some schools. But is it a quick, nutritious snack or just junk?

It’s got Peppa Pig on the packaging so this product is likely to be a big hit with the toddler market. But are they suitable toddler snacks? Let’s see in today’s Chewsday Review…

There are so many squeezie packs on the market now, and it’s not just yoghurt. Today’s review features Golden Circle Strawberry Squeeze. This is in the regular tinned fruit aisle (not the baby/child aisle). Let’s see how it fares…

I’ve been wanting to review these yoghurt rice cakes for a while now. There’s been a lot of requests for them, and a quick glance at the nutrition panel had me all hot around the collar….

It’s heading into summer season and everyone is starting to ask about icy poles in our Chewsday Review requests. Today’s review features Sugar Free-zies from Woolworths. They’re icy poles without sugar… Obviously a good choice, right? Let’s see in today’s Chewsday review…

It’s seen as the biscuit you can give to kids if you don’t really want to give them an actual biscuit. It’s so plain that it surely can’t be too bad. In fact, traditionally it’s been given to babies who are learning to eat. It’s the humble Milk Arrowroot. Today’s Chewsday Review dishes the dirt. Let’s have a closer look at Arnott’s Milk Arrowroots…

Are kiddie desserts any better than adult desserts? Can chocolate mousse be made especially for kids? Today’s review considers the Despicable Me Choc Mousse.

The baby food aisle contains so many products ‘designed’ for babies and toddlers. But are these products actually necessary, or even worthwhile? Today I recap a review of Kiddylicious Raspberry Crispie Tiddlers (seriously- who comes up with these names?!)

Today’s Chewsday review is of Mother Earth Oaty Slices, and I chose the basic “golden oats” bar to put under the microscope today. Mother Earth also have fruit variations of this bar, but they may be for another Chewsday!
