Bob Snail Healthy Snacks - Fruit Jelly with Apple, Mango, Pumpkin and Chia - Gelatine Free - No Added Sugar

My kids loved them but they are super sticky that I will have to pick when I give them to the kids.

So many people that I have offered these two think that they aren’t good. Sugar has tainted our taste buds and brains and there is absolutely nothing wrong with good wholesome natural products. I would choose these over any sugar infested products that have so many ingredients that people can’t even pronounce or don’t even know what they are in there for.My sister told me she liked fruit roll ups, and I asked her what was in them and she listed off this giant list of things she couldn’t even pronounce and she asked what was in Bob Snail and I listed two things.Fruit. Natural. Simple. Love them.

delicious snack my ukranian friends introduced me to. Now they are available in grocery stores!

Got a bunch of these off of Vine. At first glance, these seem great -- sugar free, natural ingredients, vegan ... Each piece is about the size of three or four toonies stacked together, so it's a decent size for a kid's portion. The packaging is bright and engaging and my god kids were instantly interested to try them out.Unfortunately, they absolutely hated them. The younger one just made a face and spit it out, and his age pretty much prevented him from being any more articulate than that. The older one was a little bit more explanatory: they tasted funny and, as she said it, "felt weird on her teeth". Yikes.When I tried it in its original form, I thought it was just OK. It's a little tart and not too sweet, but there is something about the jelly texture that was just different. Kind of like buying into dried, sticky jam that's built up on the side of a jar. If your kid is used to typical gummy snacks from the grocery store, or just regular fruit in general (as my god kids are), these snacks might take some getting used to.HOWEVER: Boyfriend loved these snacks! Apparently they remind him of guava jelly candy (though they are a bit stickier). Also, given that the kids didn't like them, we have since decided to repurpose them in other ways. These are quite delightful when chopped up and sprinkled on cream cheese toast, or on buttered scones! Also, I found that if you take two pieces, mix them with some hot water to melt them down, and then mix them into some icy sparkling water, they make a delicious refresher!So, you win some, you lose some. Kids were ultimately not a fan of this stuff, but we were able to come up with some yummy concoctions for them nevertheless.

Admittedly, the branding pulled me in at first, but happy to report these are really great. Especially for snacking. I also don't feel as guilty eating these as they don't have any weird added chemicals, or sugars. I recommend the apple-mango flavor.

I’m not a fan of these fruit jelly snacks. The packaging is bright, with fun colours and cartoony images. Each piece is individually wrapped and perfect for dropping into your child’s lunch bag as a treat. The packaging, as a whole, is excellent, and leads you to think that this treat is appealing and must be delicious…But at about 50 cents per piece, I don’t think these jellies are worth it.I don’t like the flavour. It’s too intense and sweet and tart and…apple-y. I was hoping for more of a smoother, mellower, mango flavour, but the apple over-powers everything else. The outside is smooth to the touch, which is okay, but biting into it, the texture is a bit…blegh. A bit…mushy?And for kids, honestly, unless they’ve been groomed to think otherwise, I think they’d be suspicious of the little bits of “stuff” (chia seeds) that can be seen through the jelly. If I were a kid, my imagination would lead me to wonder if they were insects. (By the way, the name of the brand, “Bob Snail” is already a bit of a turn-off...) It doesn’t look clean and “neat” and clear because of the chia.And don’t let your child read or know that there is PUMPKIN (ewwwww) in their snack unless you want all hell to break loose!*. *. *.[UPDATE]: The more I eat these, the more they are starting to grow on me. I’m getting used to the flavour and it’s not as terribly sweet/tart/acidic/intense as it tasted the first time I tried one. I guess my taste buds are getting used to it.
