Plum Organics +12 Months Organic Baby Food Pouches, 4 oz, 12 Pack

These are great to take in my purse for a quick snack for my 2 and 7 year olds, and this strawberry and yogurt one is their favorite! I love all the Plum Organics ingredients - it’s really nice to be able to give my kids a quick and easy snack that I don’t feel guilty about not making homemade. I also love that they have a clear section on the packaging, so I can see in the packages (have you seen the videos of the mold in the apple sauce packages??? Horrifying.) - it brings me so much peace of mind. It is also so helpful how portable they are, and that the lid goes back on when they’re done, so the trash isn’t tumbling around making a mess until I get to the trash. And these prices are lower than my local grocery store (H‑E‑B), so I will definitely be getting them here for a while!

Loved by all the toddlers in my family who I give as a snack!

My baby loves this brand!! And I love the ingredients!

These have become hard to find in our local stores and often come in packs with other flavors that my son does not like as much. Much easier to buy them this way.

Depending on the flavor, this is a good product for on the go for the beach and forgetting more veggies and fruit, but make sure you pick the right flavor

My son loves this brand and so do I because there aren’t any additives.

I have a 2.5 year old that sometimes decides he doesn’t want to eat. I can’t force him to eat, but he will always accept one of these pouches if offered to him, without fail. He can be a little bit of a picky eater, especially with food textures and beverages, so these are awesome. We were originally buying the GoGo Squeez apple sauce pouches as a quick snack for him, and he enjoyed the different flavors. But I started thinking that we could do better in terms of sugar content and nutrition. If he’s eating these fairly regularly, I figured they might as well have some added benefit. So I tried the Ella’s Kitchen Smoothies for a while. They have a little bit more nutritional value, but they were also 5x the cost and also pretty high in sugar. I also tried the Happy Tot Toddler pouches, which have even more nutritional value, less sugar, and were much less expensive than the Ella’s Kitchen Smoothies, but the kiddo didn’t like them for some reason. We tried a couple flavors and gave up; maybe the Happy Tot had a different texture? Who knows. So then I started trying a couple of the Plum Organics pouches. The original favorite was the Mighty Four line. What originally drew me to them is that they have chia added for Omega-3s, and that they have a decent amount of protein (in addition to vitamins A, C, and E). They come in flavors that my kiddo likes, are fairly low in sugar, and the price isn’t outrageous, especially on Subscribe and Save. Then, out of nowhere the child decided he wasn’t going to drink milk anymore. So I started looking for other ways to get him calcium and Vitamin D without milk, and the Mighty Four doesn’t have these. After a couple other failed options (orange juice, etc) I found the Plum Organics Super Smoothies. They are basically Mighty Four, but with calcium and vitamin D (and even less sugar). The Super Smoothies aren’t available on Subscribe and Save, essentially making them $0.10 an ounce more expensive than Mighty Four, and they don’t have as much protein. So I keep a mix of both (Super Smoothie and Mighty Four) in the house in a couple flavors each, and just try to make sure I balance them with whatever food I’ve managed to feed him that day (i.e., if he’s low on protein I give him a Mighty Four, and if he’s low on dairy products I give him a Super Smoothie). Now, do I think these should be used to replace actual food? No. But they definitely have an important role in our picky-toddler-nutrition strategy. Also, it’s super cute when he runs up to the cabinet they’re in and says, “red! blue!” to ask for one.

My son has difficulty with foods and will only eat certain things and these pouches are one of them. He absolutely loves them. I wish I had bought stock in this company because I spend more a month on these pouches than I do for the rest of the household grocery bill lol
