Initially he was unimpressed.

My LO liked the vanilla and raspberry flavours, but not the ginger. (He doesn't like gingerbread biscuits either so I wasn't surprised!).

They are a good sized pack to keep in your bag, and we LOVED the stickers on the back of the pack. Perfect for if he only ate a few so we could reseal the packet for later, and just as he loves stickers anyway!

The O shape of the biscuits were great, if they had been a bit bigger he would have probably put them on his fingers as rings, but they were not quite big enough for that, but he still liked the shape. We had a couple of conversations about them being circles, and like the letter 'O', which is all good 😃.

Dependant on the price we would recommend them to friends (& already have, and shared a few out), but would only buy vanilla and raspberry flavours ourselves as he didn't like the ginger ones.

He eats Organix bars, rice cakes, Pom bears as other bought savoury snacks, as well as just fruit.

Overall we really liked these, loved the packaging (especially the stickers!), he enjoyed the taste, and I loved that they were a healthy snack.

He loves that they fit on his fingers. This really tickled him. Baby chuckles rock.

Thank you for choosing us. We absolutely loved it!

I might do if they were there but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy them

I would like a wider range of savoury options for my DS. I think these new items fill the gap for sweet items. I especially like the hole in the middle to make them easy to hold and a good size without being a large portion.

In the other survey the items I didn't select such as the pasta sauce etc to buy were only because I make these items at home myself.

Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Very, they really are lovely, and my 2 year old really enjoyed them! Think she was just happy to have something other than fruit/rice cakes!
Q2 If Little Dish Go Gos were on sale at a price acceptable to you, do you think you would buy the products in future or not? Definitely. No question. They were a hit!

Was so impressed with these! I loved the vanilla flavours, dd really loved the ginger ones. She had them as a mid morning - mid ship building snack.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
I thought they were quite similar to other similar brands of mini biscuits targeted at toddlers really. I liked that they were oats and the inclusion of the seeds as I think it made them a bit more filling.
I was a bit annoyed that the second ingredient was molasses I.e sugar which felt a bit disingenuous, as if they were trying to disguise it and also, a percentage of ingredients was given for the healthy bits I.e oats and chia seeds but not for the honey or molasses! They were very sweet to eat too- but seemed to be a hit with my children! I was a bit confused by some of the additional ingredients - e.g pea protein. Is that really necessary?

Q2 If Little Dish Go Gos were on sale at a price acceptable to you, do you think you would buy the products in future or not?

Yes I would, my children enjoyed them and as a treat they're better than some!

Q2 If it came up, in principle, do you think you’d recommend the Little Dish Go Gos to a friend or family member or not? Why?
Yes I might do. I think out of children's biscuits / snacks they're probably better than most.
Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
Raspberry! But they liked them all.

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Organic ginger bread men and flapjacks, fruit and raisins

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Babybels/ cheese, breadsticks, houmous and veg, falafels, mini sausages

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Extremely satisfied. I can give it to my little ones without feeling guilty.

Q2 If Little Dish Go Gos were on sale at a price acceptable to you, do you think you would buy the products in future or not?
Definitely would buy.

Q2 If it came up, in principle, do you think you’d recommend the Little Dish Go Gos to a friend or family member or not? Why?
I have already recommended it to my friends as we as a family loved them. Love the fact that they're packed with good stuff like chia seed and pea protein, no nastiness.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
My 1 year old had no preference she ate all the flavours and enjoyed them equally.
My 6 years old wanted to try as well and he says it's his new favourite snack, he enjoyed the raspberry and vanilla ones the most.
I know only my child under 3 was supposed to try them but husband couldn't resist trying raspberry and ginger one and guess what? He's a fan :/ weirdo. He sad it's the perfect crispness and the taste that he loved and the fact that they have really impressive ingredients.
In short we will be buying these regularly as my two kids and the big kid aka husband loved them.

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Fruits, dried fruits, occasional chocolate treats or cakes etc

Q1 I was pretty satisfied. Dds enjoyed them, we all liked the packaging, good variety of flavours. Dds liked the individual packets, I liked that there was no waste.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Quite satisfied, health(ier) than some other biscuit products, not sure if toddler would agree with me there. He seemed to quite like a small amount, but would ask for a drink of water quite quickly. I must say I thought they were quite dry to swallow too. he did however love the little stickers on the packet!

Rice cakes. He generally gets the same biscuits and crackers as I eat as I don't tend to buy anything very sugary or salty.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
I loved the concept but was disappointed with the allergy advice. The coverall comment of being made in a factory that also uses milk is a quick/cheap way out of actually ensuring your product is free from allergens. Very disappointing.

Q2 If Little Dish Go Gos were on sale at a price acceptable to you, do you think you would buy the products in future or not?
Probably not, they are mist suitable for my youngest son but he is anaphylactic to dairy.

DD really enjoyed them. They were a little dry so she drank extra water whilst eating them but that wasn't a problem. She also would only eat 4 to 6 in one go before stopping but happy to come back to them later.

Yes depending on price

Q2 If it came up, in principle, do you think you’d recommend the Little Dish Go Gos to a friend or family member or not? Why?
Yes, they have low salt and fat so an easy snack

I think she loved the ginger the best although she liked them all. She'd not had anything ginger flavour before so it was nice to see how much she liked it

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Paws dried fruit based snacks

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Rice cakes and corn puff snacks different brands and flavours

The idea is a good one, healthy ingredients and easily transportable snacks. DD wasn't impressed unfortunately though, she tried all three flavours more than once and are a few of the vanilla ones but they were all later rejected. I tried them after her, and they seemed very dry so might be better in conjunction with something. We wouldn't buy they because of this unfortunately.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Very satisfied. DS liked all the flavours and (I think) they tick the 'healthy snack' box. Very handy to take out and about with us too. Really like the resealable sticker and DS liked that he could wear the sticker too. Nice touch.
Q2 If Little Dish Go Gos were on sale at a price acceptable to you, do you think you would buy the products in future or not?
Yes definitely.
Q2 If it came up, in principle, do you think you’d recommend the Little Dish Go Gos to a friend or family member or not? Why?
Yes I would recommend them. I think these are better for children's teeth possibly than the fruit sticks/coils you can buy.
Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
He liked them all, but the Vanilla packet got finished in one go. The other 2 flavours he left a few. We also gave a friends son a packet of the raspberry flavour to try but he didn't like them at all.

Wriggles; raisins; fruit; dry cereal (ie cheerios)
Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Breadsticks; mini cheddars; crackers; pom bears.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
VERY SATISFIED AS A PARENT KNOWING THAT THEY ARE A HEALTHY SNACK TO REPLACE OTHER SNACKS SUCH AS CRISPS/BISCUITS ETC!! MY 3YR OLD SON LOVED THEM AND DEMOLISHED THEM PRETTY QUICKLY. HE ENJOYED ALL FLAVOURS TOO AND THEY ARE GREAT SNACKS JUST ON THEIR OWN OR WITH YOGHURT/FRUIT SO LITTLE ONES ARE UNLIKELY TO GET BORED OF THEM BY ENJOYING THEM IN DIFFERENT WAYS/FLAVOURS.
Q2 If Little Dish Go Gos were on sale at a price acceptable to you, do you think you would buy the products in future or not?
I WOULD 100% BUY THESE IN THE FUTURE.

I WOULD DEFINATELY RECOMMEND THESE TO ANYONE AS I THINK THEY ARE A GREAT HEALTHY ALTERNATIVE TO OTHER SNACKS AND ALSO A GREAT TASTY TREAT FOR KIDS TOO. I LOVE THE STICKERS ON THE PACKS WHICH YOU CAN USE TO RESEAL THE PACKETS OR IN MY SONS CASE DUE TO EATING ALL IN ONE GO HE STUCK THE STICKERS ON HIS TOY BOX INSTEAD.
Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
HE ENJOYED ALL FLAVOURS BUT TOLD ME THE RASPBERRY ONES ARE HIS FAVE.
Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old? MY SON IS QUITE GOOD AND PREFERS FRUIT AND YOGHURT TO SWEETS/CHOC SO I DO BUY A LOT OF FRUIT AND YOGHURT WHICH ARE AN IDEAL COMBI TO EAT WITH THE LITTLE DISH GO GO'S.
Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
