They are foul but I cannot believe people get so het up about them. My children occasionally have them if we go out for a meal, so far they have not sprouted two heads or run about mugging old people...I have a couple of gins if I go out - theyre not good for me either!!

I did not even know what a Fruit Shoot was until I came onto Mumsnet. After reading ingredient list, can't really understand the fuss, tbh, especially as those berating them probably drink wine. If they knew the natural chemicals that comprise wine, they would probably start hyperventilating with self-righteous indignation[hiccup].

Think I'll start a thread saying I'm going to bottlefeed my newborn on Fruit Shoots and wean her on Turkey Twizzlers at 3 months and serve uncut grapes at her first birthday party with Skips for dessert and see if I can start a row.

There's so much scope for trolling on these subjects you just have to laugh.
