Thank you for choosing my dc to test these!

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

Very satisfied. Initially, the first few times my 16 month old was offered them (in the packet, in a bowl, on their own) she just refused them which is very unlike her as she is usually quite greedy & can often be spotted trying to eat a shoe or similar She seemed to take a dislike to the look of them. However, when she saw her older siblings (6 & 4) tucking into them she soon changed her mind & ate them enthusiastically.

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 probably, all 3dc liked them.

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?

In principle, yes. I like individually packaged snacks for convenience and love the sticker to reseal them.

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

Dc1 (6) ginger
Dc2 (4) raspberry
Dc3 (1) - the official tester - liked all of the flavours.

I liked the ginger.....I selflessly tasted each flavour....

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

Goodies alphabet biscuits, raisins, dried apricots.

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

Breadsticks, cheese, crackers, organix crisps.

Tried these snacks out with my 3yo daughter and also my 6yo - overall, relatively satisfied with the product, the girls weren't crying out for more, but they definitely felt satisfied after eating a pack.

I would recommend the go go's, particularly the raspberry ones and actually for the slightly older age - I struggle to find a snack which fills my 6yo until meal time. But this did the trick!

Both girls preferred the raspberry flavour by far.

They both usually snack on rice cakes, biscuits, dried fruit, chocolate, fairy cakes.

Savoury snacks they like are bread sticks, cheese triangles, cheese strings, vegetable sticks.

Just thought of a way these could possibly be improved - I found them a little dry and DS couldn't eat them without stopping to sip water - maybe they could be half dipped in yoghurt?

Overall satisfied with the little fish go gos. I like them being in little bags. They were handy when out and about.
They were a bit dry though.

I would buy them if on offer though possibly not a first choice for snacks.
I would recommend them. They were liked by my children though not the vanilla flavour.

My two loved the raspberry and my youngest who likes strong flavours liked the ginger ones.

Sweet snacks my children get are oaty bars, raisins , chocolate.

Savoury snacks include mini chedders, cheese strings, rice cakes.

Q1 Overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied were you with the Little Dish Go Gos?
We had some initial excitement, the packets are very attractive, my son loved the sticker and the fun shape: perfect for a little finger to push through. Unfortunately they are a little bland and the more I offered them the less he wanted them. Good for something not too sweet, and if he was hungry he would eat them - just not what he would want as a treat.

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?
Maybe, I would only do so occasionally.

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, there are a lot of good things about the product, but they aren't a substitute for a biscuit in my sons opinion

Q3 Which was your child’s favourite recipe/ flavour?
ginger had the most flavour, so seemed best accepted

Very satisfied, the flavours were very nice, and it was good to know that they were having a snack that tasted good and had some nutrition. DD2 is off dairy too, so they were great from that perspective. The only downside was that they are a little dry, DD1 and I did find ourselves thirsty after eating a few.

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

Pretty satisfied, DD 16 months loved them and kept asking for more, got excited when she saw the packet. They obviously filled her up, but she struggled a little with the dryness. Quite a bit came back out that she couldn't swallow (not normal for her). Think they are better suited to slightly older children. DH really like them too, which really impressed me as he's a major sweet tooth!

I really liked these snacks, my son was only keen on the Raspberry flavoured ones. He didn't really touch the vanilla or ginger ones, they were thrown to the floor after the first taste. The left over bags of those flavours are going to my neighbours child so hopefully they will like them more

I would buy the raspberry ones.

Q4 Yoyo fruit snacks. Raisins.
Q5 goodies crisps

So today we are down to our last pack. This has not gone down well with DD.

My 16mo DS and his chums did their taste test of these on holiday last week.

They loved the shape - perfect for grabbing and sticking onto little fingers (also perfect for spinning across the room . Crunchiness was good for little teethers too.

The fact they are dairy free was given thumbs up from mum of DS's friend with CMPA and meant they could share fight over freely between themselves.

Ginger flavour was most popular although I think it could definitely benefit from more ginger flavour but overall a great guilt free convenience option for toddler snacking while out and about

I thought they were great and my ds happily chomped his way through each flavour! He loved the sticker on the back of each packet and it was useful to reseal the pack.
