Only Organic Teething Rusks | Chewsday Review

Some awesome requests coming in for Chewsday Reviews. Today I'm back in the baby aisle to review Only Organic Teething Rusks. These are the particularly hard, long rusks (as opposed to the dissolvable options out there). I've had a few followers attempt to make homemade versions of these (often dairy or gluten free) with limited success. So, if you have a good recipe- feel free to share!

Ingredients

Positives

Fat, saturated fat, sugar and sodium (salt) content within healthy guidelines. No added sugar either.
Source of iron. One rusk provides 15% of recommended intake of 6-12 month olds and 18% of recommended iron intake for 1-3 year olds.
27c per rusk, which seems reasonable value.
The rusk holds its shape well, even after lots of gumming. It’s a great food for babies to learn self feeding skills.

Negatives

Marketing

Another labelling error. The product claims to contain 18% of a 6-12 month olds iron requirements, despite only providing 15% (1.6mg of 11mg). The package also states it provides 25% of a toddler’s iron requirements despite only providing 18%. Seriously, I could spend my whole life chasing food companies about their labelling errors (and still no word back from Heinz regarding those huge marketing errors on their toddler meals )
“No artificial colours or flavours.” True, and I like that these aren’t sweetened or flavoured.
There’s a super handy teething chart on the side of the pack, which gives a guide to which teeth come through and when to expect them. I thought that was kind of cool!

Alternatives

The composition of food products changes regularly. The nutritional values of the products in this Chewsday Review were correct at the time of publishing.
