part pretzel, part cracker. I had the opportunity to try townhouse flipside crackers in cheddar flavor. When i say try i mean i only got one cracker out of the box because everyone in my home devoured the whole thing before i could get my hands on more. My husband opened them and I said hey can i get some so he hands me one. It was so yummy! I could have gone for this with a dip or something to spread like cheese or something but alone the crackers are so yummy! The cool thing is you look at one side and its a pretzel and if you flip it over its a cheddar cracker. Yes I am easy entertained but hey its cool I admit it.
here is a link to the nutritional information for the cheddar ones. They do come in plain cracker/pretzel as well.

Whole Grain pop tarts yummy!
ok so i was skeptical of this because every company is doing the whole grain thing lately so when it was pop tarts that came out. I was like ok maybe it won't be so good because the point of pop tarts is that its sweet and fattening and yummy!
So i got the whole grain pop tarts in a couple different flavors because hubby loves fruit and sometimes i don't like it. low and behold i made it and it was so good :). It tasted fattening and yummy still so I don't feel so guilty eating these. It almost feels like i'm eating fatty food and i'm a big cheater as far as my healthy eating habits go.
There are only 2 gm carbs and 1 gm fat per serving too. The only thing i am not keen on is that there are a couple trans fats in the ingriedient list but its less than .5g per serving.
if you wnant a guilty pleasure then totally try these out
check out the website for yourself or go to your grocery store and get them to try out.

FROOSE JUICE BOXES
I had the opportunity to try something new
its called Froose! there are three different varieties and omg its great! my kids drank them up in a couple days they were so good Froose comes in three varieties right now and they are: Playful Peach, Cheerful Cherry and Perfect Pear. the Playful Peach was first to be drank up at my house.
here is some information about froose taken from www.froose.com about the drink and why it is so good.
What exactly is Froose®?
Froose® is a delicious and nutritious whole food beverage specially made and packaged for the healthy growth and development of young children. Froose® is a combination of whole grains and 100% fruit juice. Froose® was developed by a concerned mom and food scientists at The International Food Network at Cornell who were looking for a truly innovative solution to the lack of healthier drink options for young children.
Back to Top
What makes Froose® different?
Froose® is an all-natural patented product unlike any other. Froose® provides your child with all the benefits of organic whole grains and 100% fruit juice in a smooth and delicious drinkable form. Unlike juice and milk, Froose® delivers fiber and whole grain nutrients that are not present in other beverages for children.
Back to Top
Why is Froose® better than juice?
Froose® combines the best of Organic Whole Grains and Fruit to make a delicious and nutritious alternative to juice that is naturally low in sugar and an excellent source of fiber…as much as eating a whole piece of fruit. Froose® delivers whole grain goodness, fiber and half the sugar found in a typical serving of juice. Froose® uses a whole grain base and flavors it with 100% fruit concentrates and organic brown rice syrup. All the elements of the whole grain are incorporated in the final Froose® beverage. Nothing is stripped out. The soluble and insoluble fiber elements along with the whole grain vitamins and other nutrients are in the Froose® beverage. Regular juice consists of simple carbohydrates coming primarily from the sugar of the fruit without all of the other nutrients found in fruit. Pediatricians warn against over consumption of juice by young children and, in fact, the American Academy of Pediatricians recommend no more that 1 ½ cups of juice per day for a two year old. Froose® is the healthy alternative to juice for kids.

Why are whole grains so important for young children?
Whole grains supply complex carbohydrate, protein, fiber and other nutrients children need to maintain energy and build bones and muscles. Young children, just like adults, need fiber and the vast majority do not consume even close to the recommended daily amount. Whole grains and fiber have been clinically proven to prevent heart disease and cancers. With the obesity epidemic raging in our youth, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and cancers are showing up in children at younger and younger ages. Adopting nutritionally sound eating habits from the start that include the incorporation of more whole grains in the diet of children throughout the day will set them on the path for better lifelong health.
Back to Top
What does the name Froose® mean?
Froose® is a made up word that is trademarked. Understanding that young children love characters and love to rhyme, we invented the Froose® Moose character theme for our beverage line. A great deal of thought, commitment, energy and time went into developing the Froose® beverage. Although we are passionate about and dedicated to delivering nutritionally superior products to young children, we also firmly believe that healthy products can be formulated to taste great and be fun for kids. The Froose® Moose family of Milton, Meredith, Molly and Mitchell delight our young consumers and certainly help to establish at an early age the connection between nutrition, better choices, great taste and fun.
Back to Top
Is Froose® wheat and gluten free?
Yes. We specifically made Froose® with Organic Brown Rice so that the benefits of Froose® could be enjoyed by all children.
Back to Top
Is Froose® pasteurized?
Froose® is fully pasteurized and packaged in environmentally friendly aseptic drink boxes. Visit www.aseptic.org to learn more about aseptic packaging.
Back to Top
Does Froose® have to be refrigerated?
No. Froose® is completely shelf stable and does not need to be refrigerated. However, Froose® tastes even better when served cold. If your child does not finish their opened drink box, then Froose® would need to be refrigerated.
Back to Top
How much Froose® should my child drink?
Froose® is a nutritious whole food drink made from organic whole grains and is naturally low in sugar and calories and has 3 grams of fiber per 4.23 fl.oz. serving. You can provide Froose® throughout the day based on your child’s individual nutrition requirements. Because Froose® is not loaded with simple sugars and empty calories, you can feel good about providing your child Froose® as either a great tasting drink or an on the go snack. Froose® is a good way to help your child get the USDA recommended servings of whole grains each and every day.
Back to Top
Where can I purchase Froose®?
We are committed to providing the best drink for your kids as quickly and conveniently as possible. As we roll Froose® out across the country into retail stores, we are making Froose® available for direct purchase and home delivery through our website or toll free number.
