Little Bellies Fiddlesticks



I received a sample box of little goodies from Little Bellies and you can receive one too! (Link at the bottom of this post.) There is too much in the range to fit into one post, so I'm reviewing each of the product categories separately. Today is breadstick day!


Nutritionally speaking, per 100g you're looking at 9.3g fat (4.9g saturated, 0 trans, 0.8g polyunsaturated, 3.6g monounsaturated), 2.7g sugar, 240mg sodium, and 3.3g fibre these are pretty good! (I use the RHealth keyring cheat guide to judge this). FoodSwitch did recommend two adult breadsticks that had lower fat & salt, but they weren't cheese, and these Cheesy Fiddlesticks contain 5% organic cheese which gives them a nice lift. I don't mind a little more fat if it's coming from dairy. From memory I preferred the Carrot & Pumpkin flavour that I tried at the baby expo where I first discovered Little Bellies, but they are only available at selected health food and online stores.


Loving:
  • Flavour - yum!
  • Texture - light & crunchy!
  • Certified Organic
  • Baked, not fried
  • No added preservatives, artificial colours, or flavours
  • Just the right size for little hands
  • Each box contains 3 stay-fresh packets

Loving a little less, but liveable:
  • Imported product
  • At $3.88/100g (according to Coles) these aren't the cheapest, but they are on par with other baby breadsticks
Overall:
I quite like these and when Miss M was younger I always had a pack in my handbag. They fit quite nicely into the sandwich box that was my standby snack pack.
