Dairy Dream Kids No Added Sugar Yogurt | Chewsday Review

Today's Chewsday review features an Aldi yoghurt, because it seems lots of you shop at Aldi! When I went in to look at them, I also walked out with a range of other snack foods. Looks like I might pop in more regularly than Special Buy Wednesdays! This is the Dairy Dream Kids No Added Sugar Yogurt in Strawberry.

Ingredients

Milk, cream, Milk solids, Whole strawberry pulp (4.2%), rice starch, Natural Flavour, Lemon Pulp, Live Yogurt Cultures.
You’ll notice that sugar is not listed as an ingredient, which means that no sugar was added to the yoghurt during production. This is a great thing. I love that whole strawberries are used, rather than just juice or flavour. Remember, there will still be some sugars present in the final product, due to those that occur naturally in milk and in strawberries/apple. This is NOT a bad thing!
Common allergens include: milk

Positives

Negatives

This yoghurt has one of the highest saturated fat (bad fat) contents of all of the yoghurts I’ve looked at, putting it at 1.5 times the recommended level. This comes from the two ingredients in the greatest amount- whole milk and cream. I certainly don’t think that everything needs to be low fat, especially not for kids, but I wouldn’t mark this level as a good thing.
I don’t like yogurt spelled without the ‘h’. Small issue though, and could possibly be taken as ‘nit-picking’.
Squeezie packs are convenient and less messy than spoons BUT they really don’t help children to develop biting and chewing skills that they need for other foods. They also don’t let children experience the smell or visual component of foods and they contribute to plastic waste. I’d prefer to have the option to scoop this yoghurt out of a bigger tub. From what I can see on the Aldi website (not easy!) it looks like there are small tubs of them!
