Holiday Gift Giving Guide: Plum Organics (Product Review)

I was recently sent samples of the Plum Organics Tot product line to try out with my daughter, Savannah.  We have been slowly transitioning her to more solid foods, including “people” food, but still serve her 1-2 meals a day that consist of baby food pouches, in addition to snacks for toddlers.  I am always on the lookout for organic and healthy food options for her, for meals and snacks.  In the past, I had purchased a few of the Plum Organics pouches for babies in their banana flavor, and Savannah enjoyed them immensley.  But, since that time, I hadn’t tried her with the Plum Organics Tots product line.

So, when I was given the opportunity to review Plum Organics pouches and snacks, I jumped at the opportunity to have my daughter, Savannah sample products from this wonderful brand.  Plum Organics kindly sent me a handful of pouched foods (which Savannah devoured each and every one), as well as a container of Super Puffs and a box of fiddlestixs.  Out of all the samples sent, Savannah loved the “Purple” Super Puffs.

Vibrantly colored fruits and veggies hold many beneficial vitamins and minerals. Serving your baby a rainbow of colors will not only help develop a healthy taste for a variety of flavors, but will also provide a wide range of nutrients. Super Puffs are light, yummy and a convenient way for lil' ones to explore self-feeding while learning to "eat their colors."

In regards to the Berry Fiddlestix sample I was sent, unfortunately, Savannah was not a big fan of these snacks.  I even tried buying her the banana flavored Fiddlestix, but she still turned away or wouldn’t eat these snacks.  I have other friends whose children can’t live without these snacks.  So, I guess it is a taste preference for your little one, when it comes to their favorite snacks.  Right now, Savannah loves treats that are either banana or cheese flavored.
