In our house, I am the first to say, we eat junk food. But we also eat a TON of fruit. I probably do fresh fruit and canned fruit runs twice a week. Charlotte is a fruitatarian actually. Its about the only thing i CAN get her to eat, 99.9% of the time. Charlotte’s favorite are mandarin oranges!
We buy a lot of fruit in snak paks. They make it easy for me to pull out different flavors for dinner or lunch, and put right on her plate. She HONESTLY has at least one a day. Fresh fruit seems to go so bad so quickly, that this is one of those wonderful options I am so happy about. So when Dole offered to send over this completely darling Marty Snak Pak, we had one of those moments of YES, of COURSE! We already buy all the products, so we were excited to receive this marty snak pak in with some Dole Fruit in the mail!~ Look how cute! You put your little snak pak into it and it clips right onto the backpack or has a wrist carrier for little ones. Its also lined so it keeps it cool and easy to wipe in case a spill happens. Yummy for afternoon snack!
