I have an exclusive for you all today! These cute little packages are not out in stores yet but I was sent some samples to try out.

The girls loved them. I even had a taste. They have so many good qualities but we will start with taste and convenience because let's be honest as parents that tends to be a huge issue.

The girls loved the taste of Smashies. I was actually a bit surprised that Nicole loved it as much as she did. She is an extremely picky eater. Everyone agreed that Smashies tastes more like apples than regular applesauce. It is not as sweet so you can really taste the apples. It has a bit of a tartness to it even. It was not like sour apples but just enough tart flavor to be nice surprise. It is also a very smooth texture. I never realized how gritty feeling regular applesauce is until I tasted Smashies.

I love that Smashies come in the convenient packaging. They are perfect for all your parenting needs. I remember when the kids were younger and I had to grab snacks for car rides. Smashies would be perfect for that. You do not have to worry about them going bad or making a mess. They would also be perfect for school lunches or when you are in a hurry and need to get to clubs or practices. When Nicole and Neona had soccer practice I was always racing to find healthy things that they could eat on the go.

Okay now let's be practical and look at the other good qualities Smashies have. My kids love applesauce but we seldom buy it. If we get the big bottles we always end up throwing it away after we discover that it was forgotten in the back of the fridge and has started it's own science experiment. Those individual plastic cups are not as convenient as they claim. You have to be very gentle with them or the film on the top will come up and make a mess everywhere. That makes them hard to take on the go. Plus then you also need to bring silverware. The little drinkable pouches that Smashies come in are wonderful. No need for silverware, no moldy applesauce, and they can go anywhere without a mess.

Now I would like to talk about the health aspect. You all know that I am trying to be healthier now. That includes looking at what my girls eat. Did you know that regular applesauce is packed full of sugar? You would never think about feeding your young kids candy bars as often as you feed them applesauce but regular applesauce has just about as much sugar.

Smashies are organic and have no added sugar. In fact they only have three ingredients in them. When was the last time you saw something with so few ingredients? You can even pronounce all three!

Okay I have gone on long enough about Smashies. They are a small company right now and are not out in stores yet but I am sure they will be taking off in popularity soon. If you can not wait and want to give them a try yourself you can get them from the Smashies website. They sell them in a 10 pack for $14.99. The shipping is included in the price.
