Snacks For the Picky Eater from The Goodies Co. #sponsored

Thank you to Walmart Labs for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own.

Are your kids picky eaters? I can very much relate. For years my kids have been extraordinarily picky. We can rarely go out to eat because there are so few things they will actually try. When your kids are picky you sometimes get in a rut of serving them the same things over and over. I try to serve the kids what we are eating at mealtime (they usually won't eat much of it) but for snacks we have a few staples we cycle through: crackers, dried cranberries, cheese, pretzels, and cookies. I have tried buying different snacks for the kids before, but that usually doesn't end well. So I have been on the lookout for yummy snacks they will enjoy.

Recently, while grocery shopping, I saw some dried carrot chips. I liked the idea of feeding my kids carrots and thought since they were orange maybe the girls would try them. Now they were a bit pricey, at a little over $5.00 a bag, but if my kids would eat them (CARROTS!) then I would happily pay it. Long story short, the girls turned up their noses at the carrots and frankly so did me and my husband. I was eventually able to pawn them off on my mother, but I have no idea what she did with them. I wish I could say the carrot chip fail was an isolated incident, but it happens more often than I'd like to admit. But I think I discovered something that may change all that.
