Late July Cookies Review

Photobucket
“Cookies Cookies” Noah is a cookie monster. I sometimes wonder if he is a direct descendant of Cookie Monster himself. Not because he is blue or furry but because he loves cookies that much. So when I had the opportunity to try out some cookies from Late July I thought these would be perfect for my little cookie monster.

Late July is a family owned and operated organic snack company. It was started by Stephan Bernard and Nicole Dawes. Late July makes cookies in both full size and mini sandwich cookies. The full sized sandwich cookies flavors are Vanilla Bean and Dark Chocolate. The mini sandwich cookies come in mini milk chocolate and mini white chocolate. They also make two flavors of full size crackers Classic Saltines and Classic Rich crackers. There are mini peanut butter sandwich crackers too.
Everything they make is USDA certified organic made with fine ingredients.

Late July has been featured on The Food Network show Unwrapped. I learned a lot about Late July when I saw them featured on Unwrapped. One of the things I learned is the little boy and the dog is the Nicole’s son and dog. You can also find a secret number written in the sailboat that has to do with her son’s birthday. See if you can find it while you are snacking on these gourmet organic goodies.

We had the chance to try both varieties of the organic mini cookies. Noah loves them. He gobbles them up. The mini cookies they have animals on them because 10% of the profits go to the Jane Goodall Institute. Noah really likes to name the animals on the cookies as he eats them. It is really cute to listen to him talk about the animals. He asks for the cookies all the time. He calls them the cookies with the animals on them. I had to try them too. I love cookies too. I think they taste good. I have tried other organic cookies before and Late July tastes so much better than the other ones I tried. They don’t taste like they are a healthier option. We both like them a lot. We like to sit together and share a small bowl of cookies. I usually only get one or two though. I feel confident giving him Late July Organic Mini Cookies because they don’t have all the extras like High Fructose Corn Syrup in them. They are made with whole grain and are a good source of calcium.

You can find Late July products in stores. You can use the store locator on the side bar of the website to find a location near you!

For more information please visit Late July. Please visit the Late July store to order delicious cookies and crackers that your little one are sure to love.

Thank you to Late July for sending me some samples of mini organic cookies for me to review.

Yoplait Less Sugar More Fun Review and Giveaway!

Yoplait is a well known brand of yogurt. A while back they came up with kid’s yogurt. There are quite a few different varieties of Yoplait Kids. The yogurt has 25% less sugar than the leading kid’s yogurt. It is a good source of Vitamin D. Yoplait Kids also has no artificial sweeteners or flavors. It is thick and creamy so it will stay on your child’s spoon. When my son was eating the yogurt he didn’t get as messy as he often does and the couple times he did spill, it was really easy to clean up.

We had the opportunity to try out Yoplait Kids yogurt because I am a member of My Blog Spark. My son loves it. We had a coupon for a free pack of kid’s yogurt. We got the Dora Strawberry and Strawberry & Vanilla multi pack. It had three cups in each flavor. My son started calling it strawberry because that is what I told him it was. He can be pretty persnickety when it comes to food sometimes. He now calls it strawberry yogurt. I put it in one of his little bowls. I love his little bowls they make it so easy for him to feed him self. I of course stirred it up so it would be smoother. I watched him shovel in to his mouth. He talked about how good it was. He asks for yogurt all the time now. We will have to add that to our shopping list.

We also got two kid sized plastic reusable spoons, a place mat, and a really cool little toy . He loves playing with the toy. So if you want a yogurt that you children will love. Please check out Yoplait Kids Yogurt with lower sugar.
