Peter Rabbit Organics Review


About Peter Rabbit Organics
As parents, we only want the best nutrition for our children. I know I have such a hard time finding healthy fruit snacks and other organic kid-friendly foods. Peter Rabbit Organics was founded for this very reason. They originally began in a small London based office and became such a huge hit that they now make them in Oregon and sell them across the U.S. Peter Rabbit Organics is committed to providing healthy organic fruit snacks.

Organic Fruit Pouches
Peter Rabbit Organics Fruit Snacks are made from pure, organic fruit. Every fruit snack includes a full serving of  100% fruit. Their fruit snacks are made without added sugar or preservatives and come in a BPA-free pouch, similar to a squeezable juice pouch. Peter Rabbit Organics Fruit Snacks are available in three different varieties: Strawberry- Banana, Apple- Grape and Mango- Banana- Orange. Peter Rabbit Organics Fruit Snacks are recommended for children ages 6 months and older.
My Review
My two year old son has turned his nose up at fruits from the time we first introduced him to baby food. He despises fresh fruit, canned fruit and frozen fruit. In the past, I have tried to hide fruit pieces in (his favorite) plain yogurt and cereal, but he always find the fruit and spits it out. When we received our Peter Rabbit Fruit Pouches, I wasn't quite sure how well this would go over with him. To be honest with you, I thought he would spit it out just as he has done in the past.

To my surprise, he absolutely loved them! The first flavor I gave him was the Strawberry and Banana. I attempted to take the pouch from him to have a taste for myself, but he pushed my hand away and shouted "no!". He carried his pouch around with him all over the house and refused to set it down. I finally managed to take the pouch from him for a quick taste. The Strawberry Banana Organic Fruit Snack tasted exactly as you would imagine - strawberries and bananas. It had a granular consistency similar to applesauce. And just like applesauce, the fruit snacks are easy to swallow without chewing. The pouches are made with a no-choke cap that can be easily twisted off by an adult.

I am very impressed that my son enjoys the Peter Rabbit Organics Fruit Snacks. The only problem I have is that I wish I had discovered them sooner! These fruit snacks can be enjoyed directly from the pouch which means no spoons or straws are required. Besides being yummy, these snacks are mess-free, convenient, and perfect for on-the-go. Peter Rabbit Organics pouches are convenient to drop into a diaper bag, lunch box or purse without breaking or spilling. Unopened pouches don't need to be refrigerated, which means they can be enjoyed at home or while you are out and about.

Where to Buy
Peter Rabbit Organics Pouches are sold online at Amazon and are available at select Starbucks locations. They are also sold in stores across the US. To find a store near you, please use the Peter Rabbit store locator.

Find Restaurants, Events, Stores & More at Yelp



Have you ever sat at home bored out of your mind? You want to go out for a bite to eat or treat yourself to a shopping spree but you're tired of the same ol' boring routine. Of course, you have! Nobody is happy eating at the same place every night or going back to a hair salon that butchered you.

Yelp is an online community filled with thousands of reviews. You can find reviews for restaurants, grocery and retail stores, salons, theaters, hotels, event planning services and so much more.

Yelp is very user friendly. You have the option to search by city, category or business name/type. Most of the reviews I have seen here are very detailed and from my experience, very accurate. If I'm interested in trying a new restaurant, I always check the reviews first. If most of the reviews are negative, I will search Yelp for an alternative option.

You even have the option to browse through events. Our family has used this feature on many weekends when we were looking for something to do. For instance, a few events in Dallas this week are Dallas Blooms @ the Arboretum, St. Patrick's Day Block Party, The Dallas Flea (upscale flea market) Bon Jovi. There are over 7 pages of events in just the Dallas area. You will have the option to search events in your area.

If you are like me, and like to compliment good service or complain about horrible service, you can join Yelp for free and post your own reviews.
