Living with a picky toddler can sure make life seem more difficult than it truly is. I recently found that Mr Picky will eat squeeze packets…. these are now one of the what seems like 3 foods he will eat. I love that he will eat these packets because it is an easy way to get some fruits and veggies into his system. That being said… those little buggers are expensive! I thought, there has to be a better way! Sure enough, there was! After searching what felt like the entire internet and reading every reviews possible, I decided to try Natures Little Squeeze reusable packets…. and the review were right! (https://www.amazon.com/Reusable-Food-Pouch-Pack-Homemade/dp/B014UC3AC8/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1467331676&sr=8-1&keywords=weesprout) These are great! and I LOVE that I know exactly what is in the packets and what he is eating!
A few other added bonuses are that they have a clear window so you can tell which packet is peaches and which is spinach. And my favorite feature….. they are DISHWASHER SAFE! I found that if I spay them out quickly before I put them in the dishwater (top shelf only) that they clean up quite nicely! They come in a pack of 6 so I have make enough food to fill them all and I put two in the fridge for school the next day and the remaining four in the freezer for the rest of the week.
I went with the 5 oz packets, but I think I will go back and buy the 3.4 oz packets. The only problem with the 5 oz packets is that they seem a little big for my 18 month olds hands. Also, he knows he needs to squeeze them but he doesn’t quite get it. He squeezes the middle of the packet without realizing that moves half the food up and half the food down.
To Sum it up:
Yes – I would buy these again
Yes – I would recommend these to friends
If any other mommy (or daddy) feels like those darn delicious squeeze packets are gonna make them go broke…. make sure you tell them about these great packets!
