Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Very satisfied - loved the packaging, great idea to put them in resealable packs to help keep them fresh. DD loved the character stickers, which encouraged her to save some rather than polish the lot off. (She was a bit scared of Crawford crocodile though...). I'm impressed with ingredients too, especially the protein content as we're vegetarian and it all helps. DD loved the ring shape - just the right size for fitting on the finger hula hoop style, or her tongue, not so stylishly...

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!

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, and in fact I gave a few packets to friends to try as well and all feedback was positive.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
Ginger - she loves gingerbread/biscuits, all things ginger. She also really liked the vanilla but wasn't so keen on the raspberry ones (these were very sweet and tasted like jam, which she's not a fan of).

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Raisins, dried fruit snacks like strawberry wheels and laces, rice cakes

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Bread sticks, mini cheddars, pom bears

MrsDeathOfRats · 20/01/2016 18:00

Thanks for including me and my little ones!

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Satisfied. For sure. DS (16 months) absolutely loved them. His big sister (3.6) loved them too
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 them. Really chuffed at the seed element involved. My 2 eat seeds on breakfast anyway but it's great to know that what I'm giving them snack wise is heathy too
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 would recommend (already have!)
Loved the packet sizes. More then enough for 2 servings or 2 children to fight over share.
Healthy and the sticker just made it fun
Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
Ginger! They were both a bit underwhelmed by the vanilla flavour. The ginger was lovely (I tried them all too as how else can I possibly comment if I have no first hand experience ;) )
Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Occasionally buy haribos but otherwise don't buy sweets

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Soreen mini loaves, goodies oaty bars. Bread sticks. Yo yo bear fruit roll things
I do bake a lot and make a lot of low sugar stuff for them

I want to add that I was genuinely stunned at the size of the box.
I feel that it was incredibly wasteful and not at all environmentally friendly.
The 3 boxes of snacks could have been shipped in a far smaller single box, rather then in a huge box that was 2/3 empty, then put inside another huge box.

chibsortig · 20/01/2016 18:28

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?

Very satisfied it is nice to have an alternative from big cereal bars or 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?

Most 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?

I would recommend them, i like the flavours the individual pack sizes. they are great for popping in my changing bag for snacks on the go.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?

The raspberry ones

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years

ellas kitchen fruit pouches and snacks,boots rice cakes, rusks,

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?

anabel karmel mickey mouse rice snacks ellas kitchen snacks

MrsJorahMormont · 20/01/2016 19:03

Thanks for including us in this! I feel a bit guilty but our 3 year old wasn't keen on these, although she ate most of the ginger ones.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?

I was satisfied with the concept and think a high protein, low sugar snack is a great idea. Unfortunately DD didn't like 2 of the varieties. I really liked them though! Blush

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 buy the ginger ones as she ate most of them. I'm going to try again with the other flavours as I think the pea protein gives a slightly beany texture and this might be what took her a bit to get used to. I would also consider buying them for me! At 114 cals for a packet they are quite filling (moreso than a biscuit or a packet of crisps) and the ginger ones would be nice with a cuppa :o Maybe you should be marketing them as 'a snack for all the family'?!

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 because I like the idea of a high protein, not too sweet snack.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?

Ginger, which was a surprise as they were the ones I thought she wouldn't like! Vanilla were the least popular, raspberry weren't much more popular. I liked the raspberry and ginger ones :o

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

The little oat bars and yoghurt sticks which we freeze into ice pops. She also eats a lot of fruit.

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?

We occasionally buy the little mini cheddar crackers for kids.

MrsTatum1980 · 20/01/2016 19:36

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Loved the packaging and marketing of the product. Very appealing and DD7 loved the stickers to resell the packs. Biscuit wise DS 16 months enjoyed the raspberry ones and vanilla ones but didn't like the ginger flavour. DD7 got in on the tasting and did comment that they were a bit dry.
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'd buy them for DS as they are an alternative to many of the more unhealthy snacks and they are convenient to take out and about.
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're a handy, healthy snack and taste is such a personal thing so I'd definitely recommend they give them a go.
Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
Raspberry, very definitely. He didn't like the ginger at all.
Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Raisins/dried fruit snack boxes, Bear yoyos, fruit wriggles, kinder treats, the occasional biscuit (he's obsessed with Danish butter cookies Blush)
Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Mini cheddars, Pombears, cheese straws

peakypie · 20/01/2016 19:55

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
I really loved the packaging and the animal characters are lovely, very appealing all round and the sticker is a great idea! Overall I'd say we were satisfied with the Go Gos, at first the kids were a bit unsure and the eldest thought they were a bit dry, but it didnt stop them trying a few biscuits from each pack. They've been eating them since as a snack and seem to enjoy them so all good.

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 probably would, handy as an easy snack and not too big a packet that would spoil any appetites.

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 definitely, I thought they were a good snack not loaded with sugar, pretty tasty considering all the healthy ingredients, good size for little fingers, all packaged in a lovely packet. Overall a good product!

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
4 year old - vanilla
2 year old and me - raspberry
Kids were unsure of the ginger but I liked them dipped in tea.

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Dried fruit, garibaldi biscuits, Organix Goodies mini oaty bites, occasionally chocolate coated snacky biscuits.

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Mini chedders, rice cakes, crackers.

Thanks for the opportunity, looking forward to using the vouchers for the meals too!

abcxyz123 · 20/01/2016 20:38

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos? Quite satisfied. Initially I was very excited as I thought they were a brilliant idea. I still think they are a brilliant idea in principle. It's just a shame that they are quite dry and didn't appeal to my kids that much.

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?
Perhaps. They might be useful for snacking when out, but my daughter has been rejecting them at home in favour of other things in the "snack cupboard".

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?
Perhaps, as a healthy savoury snack that's good for eating on the go, but with the proviso that they are quite bland.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
Vanilla. My 3 year old rejected the ginger on the grounds that it was "too spicy", although I think the main problem was the idea of ginger (as they are clearly not too spicy - possibly not spicy enough!). My 1 year old tried each flavour but didn't seem particularly excited by any of them.

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Biscuits. Yoyos and Bear Paws (try to limit these as a treat). Fruit

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Rice cakes. Oat cakes. Breadsticks. Snack size cheeses (Babybels etc). Occasional baby crisps, Pom Bears, Mini Cheddars, Wotsits...

KP86 · 20/01/2016 21:26

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
They were ok. My opinion: first mouthful they were dry and I felt like reaching for a drink, but the overall taste wasn't too bad (I like plain things). DS wasn't a huge fan, he was happy to have one or two but then didn't really want any more. The first two packets (ginger and then vanilla) he ate without thinking, but after that he wasn't interested.
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, because DS didn't like them that much.
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, but with the preface that my son wasn't exactly gobbling them down.
Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
N/A
Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Plain biscuits, yoghurt pouches, sultanas, mandarins, apples, fruity-filled biscuits
Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Cheese sticks or Babybels, mini-Ritz or cheese crackers, rice cakes, cooked carrot sticks or cucumber, cheese or Cheesybite (type of Vegemite) toastie

bananas4kate · 20/01/2016 21:57

Thank you for including us on the test panel, I was really excited to receive the big box!

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
I was very satisfied, the product looks good, I thought they were tasty and relatively healthy. My 2 year old daughter was not so keen - she did not like the ginger flavour or the vanilla at first. She quite enjoyed the raspberry flavour. On second try she accepted the vanilla flavour too. My one year old seemed happy to eat them all though.

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'm not sure, while I was impressed with them, I would only want to buy them if I was sure they would be eaten.

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 think I would recommend them. They are another alternative to rice cakes, bread sticks and other snacks. I like that they come in small resealable packets which are easily portable and that they are relatively healthy.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
Raspberry was the only instant hit. Vanilla was accepted after a while. Ginger was not popular as it was too "hot" according to DD.

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Raisins, Ella's kitchen oat and raisin cookies, very occasional milky bar buttons. Lots of fruit.

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Rice cakes, bread sticks, cracker bread, cheese.

BicycleMadeForTwo · 20/01/2016 22:51

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?

Very satisfied as my son loved them. I thought the packaging was lovely and he really liked the animals on the bags. I tried them myself and found them quite dry but my son loved them. He put them on his fingers to eat and happily munched through the different 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?

Yes, if the price was reasonable I would definitely buy them again.

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 to friends and family as they are a good healthy alternative snack and I've seen how much my son enjoyed eating them.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?

He liked them all but the favourite was vanilla.

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

Dried fruit, oaty bars, chocolate.

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?

Carrot crisps, crackers, breadsticks.

WineOrSleep · 20/01/2016 23:27

Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos

Quite satisfied, they did as they said on the tin, and filled up DC's tummy on the go

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 think so yes. As a quick "emergency" snack I thought they were healthy enough to have a packet or two lying in my handbag for when the hunger pains strike

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. I trust the brand, and the ingredients seem pretty standard and nothing too alien-like in terms of additives
Saved me having to buy a chocolate bar after swimming so I think other parents would appreciate the easy go to aspect of them also

Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?

Raspberry was a big hit and got wolfed down with no complaints!

What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?

They like the bear YoYo's and sometimes the yoghurt covered raisins. Usually just dried apricots or mango

What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?

Rice or oat cakes or just strips of cooked pitta breads with hummus

DefiniteMaybe · 20/01/2016 23:39

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
I'm not overly impressed with them to be honest, I like snacks to be a bigger size with less of them. My daughter is 14 months and will just empty a bag of snacks on to the floor so I prefer snacks that I can just pass to her in her hand. These are so small I'd be passing them constantly. Dd isn't too keen on them either and my niece also wasn't fussed.
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
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?
If they were after that kind of snack then yes, they're just not right for me and my child.
Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
She wasn't really bothered by any of them, probably the vanilla.
Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
It depends where we are/what's going on but she likes fruit, biscuits, chocolate. For Snacks that are specifically aimed at children she likes biscotti and the organix vanilla rings
Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Rice cakes and cheddars

soundsofsodor · 20/01/2016 23:54

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?

I was impressed with them initially. The packs seemed a nice size.

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?

No, as DS has point blank refused to try them. Very unusual for him

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, it's nice to have alternative snacks.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?

I can't say as he wouldn't eat them.

Sweet snacks tend to be in fruit firm. Raisins, apricots, banana slices etc.

Babybell, rice cakes, breadsticks, nuts

EasterRobin · 21/01/2016 03:03

Thanks for the parcel!

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Pretty satisfied. DD was happy to eat them, they take a while to get through so kept her busy for a while, they seem healthier than a lot of the alternatives, good portion sizes, convenient for on-the-go consumption as well as at home.

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. They are really handy as easy, healthy (ish) snacks in convenient packs.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
Seemed happy eating them all. Probably vanilla.

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Raisins, bananas, I don't buy packaged sweet snacks for her

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Cheese, scotch eggs, baby rice cakes, Ella's kitchen pouches, baby "carrot stick" snacks.

ForeverFlummoxed · 21/01/2016 06:38

Excited to receive the parcel but like others have said, it was huge for the contents!

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
I liked the packaging and thought the size was good as a handy pack to take out and about.

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?
It really would depend on the price as I find some of these convenience snacks for children can be quite expensive.

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 already did to a group of mummy friends the other day and shared out some of the biscuits which seemed to go down well!

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
She liked the raspberry and vanilla ones. The ginger ones haven't gone as well but that might be because we don't really eat ginger biscuits in this houses- not really a ginger biscuit loving family. I quite like the raspberry biscuits myself!

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Heinz biscotti, sweet flavoured rice cakes (organic or mammia), fruit - tend to give fruit or savoury snacks more as a snack rather than too many sweet alternatives, although my husband will buy her popcorn when he has taken her out.

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Crackers, breadsticks

Sarahb8990 · 21/01/2016 07:58

As my son didn't like them I passed them on to a friend who has given feed back also.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
We were quite satisfied. A couple of the vanilla ones where very hard though and my son hurt his teeth on them.
My friend says she is really satisfied and went down a treat with he daughter.

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 wouldn't because my son doesn't like them. My friend said yes.

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. The snacks are convenient and easy to eat on the go. And the little sticker on the bag is great to seal it back up.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
He point blank refused to try any of them after the one hurt his teeth. He preferred to stack them than eat them. (See pic).
My friends daughter prefers the raspberry ones.

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Goodie bars, biscotti.

Q5 savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old? Corn puffs and rice cakes.

doggyg · 21/01/2016 09:41

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Quite satisfied, and my DD really liked them Smile I liked the packaging, especially the inclusion of the resealing/t-shirt stickers! The only negative I'd have to say was that they seemed a little bit dry but my DD always has water when we go out so it wasn't really a problem.

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 definitely buy these as snacks for my DD if they were a reasonable price! She loves them.

Q3 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?
Definitely. They taste really good (I tried them too!) and seem a lot healthier than a lot of other toddler snacks out there.

Q4 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
She liked all of them but her favourite was probably the raspberry ones.

Q5 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Organic Oaty Bars and fresh fruit, although she still loves the Ella's kitchen fruit pouches (and the occasional bit of chocolate).

Q6 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Cheese and veggie sticks (carrot etc).

musicinspring1 · 21/01/2016 10:04

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?

I was quite satisfied with the Little Dish GoGos.

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 buy them in a shop.

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 would recommend them, although I was disappointed with the allergy labelling. I initially thought they would be great for a friend's DS, but as he has an actual allergy, not intolerance, they are not appropriate for him. I thought the labelling on the front of the package was a bit misleading here.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?

DD (14 months) liked all of them, but preferred the Vanilla flavour. I tried them and actually thought the Raspberry flavour was the tastiest.

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

I have two older children and so DD does have the occasional biscuit etc. with them. She also has the Heinz Biscotti, the Goodies Oat bars, the Goodies gingerbread men, any flavour rice cakes, fruit squeezy pouches (any brand) and fruit.

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years

Bread sticks, crackers, plain rice cakes.

Other comments

I offered them to my older DC and although they love the Goodies gingerbread men they really didn't like the ginger flavour biscuits. DD (6) said that they didn't taste as ginger-y and also she preferred the shape of the men.
They reminded me of a breakfast biscuit as they were quite dry, but DD (14mo) enjoyed them. They were very handy to have in the changing bag as a change from rice cakes and raisins.
It looks like it was just me, but I completely missed the sticker on the packet until I read the first few comments on this thread. I think that is a major selling point for these biscuits, as when I read about it I used the sticker to re-seal the packet and then give to DD who absolutely loves stickers. Is it worth a redesign of the box to maybe make more of this feature? The sticker would tip me to buy these , rather than other baby biscuit products if they were a similar price.

Thank you for including me in the product test, DD has also enjoyed trying the Little Dish dinners. I have used them occasionally in the past and am still happy with the quality of them.

joeyhanmum · 21/01/2016 10:39

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Definitely satisfied - my nearly 3 yr old DD liked all the flavours. I thought they were dry myself.
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
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, great idea to have a healthier snack than biscuits!
Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
Vanilla...though the next day she said ginger!
Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Aldi food market snack bars, occasional biscuits, raisins etc
Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Occasional crisps

Thank you for the opportunity to try these! The stickers were a big hit too ( and the voucher for a free toddler meal in each box was fab as well!).
Just a comment to Mumsnet HQ regards the packaging - seemed a bit pointless to have the little dish box packaged inside another large box - the main box could just have been labelled with address details?

WhosFred · 21/01/2016 13:31

Thank you for letting us take part, very pleased that we could try these out.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Very satisfied! Great to have a tasty snack for out and about.

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. These suit us very well.

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, as a great snack option which is relatively mess free (not too crumbly) and not sugar laden.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
All flavours enjoyed, very relieved that they've not been sweetened to much. The ginger ones I think have been munched with more "Yums" (I also agree Wink)

Q4 What other sweet snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Fruit mainly or annabel karmel fruity bakes as handy to keep in bag or car.

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?
Marmite mini rice cakes, organix cheese puffs (blooming messy though) Crackers/breadsticks, crudités etc

Thanks again for including us and look forward to hopefully seeing an expansion on the little dish snack options front!

DrewsWife · 21/01/2016 13:51

I'm seeing a problem with these biscuits....

I am not allowed to nibble them. I asked for a wee bit and was glared at...promptly followed by a tantrum... He now holds them close... Just incase mummy has any ideas..... Clearly tooooooo tasty.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
Quite satisfied. The stickers on the packets were a huge hit with both children! 3 year old liked them, but said they were very dry. 18 month old not keen. Unfortunately, once chewed and spat out, they seem to turn in to cement very quickly!

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?

Initially I was really pleased. The pack sizes are great, they lasted my LO two servings. I let my 3 year old daughter and 7 year old son try the biscuits. My 7 year old really enjoyed all three flavours, however, my daughter only really enjoyed the raspberry flavoured biscuits - the ginger and vanilla she did not really eat.

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 think I would be more likely to buy these for my son's lunchbox. I would buy the raspberry flavour for my daughter.

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 would recommend them. They are different to other snacks on the market and I know that Little Dish do not have any nasties like extra sugar etc.

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?

My 3 year old liked the raspberry, my 7 year old enjoyed all three flavours.

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

Raisins and rice cakes.

Q5 What savoury snacks do you currently buy for your child/children under 3 years old?

Bread sticks and cheese crackers like ritz etc.
