The struggle to provide kids with healthy and nutritious lunchbox snacks is not a struggle that is new to parents and guardians. With the ever increasing amount of junk food available in stores it’s hard to get kids excited in the alternatives which are usually healthy and yummy at the same time. So, let’s try and find some!
Chips are a favourite for the lunchbox but also a high source of sugar and energy that are probably not the best thing to be putting in a child about to step into the classroom! Instead, ‘Luke’s Organic Kale Chips’ offer an alternative that is organic, vegan, non-GMO and kosher to ensure you can still provide a tasty treat without all the junk! Its regular costumers report that it tastes fantastic, it offers a perfect snack for both kids and adults alike. An interesting thing to note which is reported as frequently as praise towards these particular snacks is that they don’t seem to be available in store and must be bought online. Due to this fact, most people by it in bulk which produces crushed packets and chips, however this is not so much a food issue and simply a logistical one with ordering.
‘Mary’s Black Pepper Crackers’ are another option for hungry kids on the run, they are Gluten free as well as vegan friendly and are reportedly extremely addictive! It is rare that you get a healthy, organic snack that tastes as good (if not better) than the usual junk foods we put in the lunchbox. They are reasonably prices as well and the majority of those that have bought it feel there is a good balance between price and quality, something you don’t always get when it comes to organic and vegan snacks due to the cost of the ingredients that go into ensuring it is of top quality. There isn’t much else to say on these, as there seems to be no negative reviews or complaints!
Growing kids need every bit of goodness they can get, and it is no secret that getting little ones to eat healthy is indeed a trough task. Getting crucial vitamins, protein and energy every day may seem like a hard ask, but in fact there is a simple snack that can make it quite a simple task. ‘Tosi Superbites’ are an organic, gluten free and vegan friendly snack made with cashews, almonds, flaxseeds and many other healthy bits and bobs. They provide a strong source of protein, omega-3 and fiber as well as being a very tasty treat. Most people love them for how easy it is to eat them on the run, be it at the park, in school, or even at home! Everything from taste to smell is appealing and they are perfect for not just the hungry kids but adults as well. There is a common issue buyers have with Tosi, being that these products usually come out more expensive than you would like to pay and that has been a bit of a letdown for a lot of people who have tried and loved these snacks, but can’t afford to be buying them weekly to put in lunchboxes. However, if you don’t mind paying a bit extra (and to be fair, you are paying for top notch quality and a very healthy, organic snack that will provide plenty of energy for the day ahead) then this is probably one the best products you can get your hands on, even more so for vegans looking for a fast and simple meal that tastes amazing and stops cravings during the day!
