Taste Test Review - Annabel Karmel Products

We had a splendid day out at Slimbridge Wetland Centre yesterday with some fantastic friends, and this was a perfect opportunity for James to try some of his Annabel Karmel snacks, as they were easy to throw into his lunchbox for dipping in to throughout the day.

A couple of the snacks that he had to try we found very similar to ones on the market already - fruit bakes in Apple and Raspberry flavour.  Always a winner with these and he feels a grown up eating similar fruit bars to mummy and daddy!  Also means he isn't nicking ours! 

The ones I was most interested in were the Carrot and Mild Curry Crackers and the Beet and Shallot crackers.  I haven't seen anything like this on the market so far (not to say that there aren't any, just I haven't looked for them!)

James seemed to enjoy them and I was more than happy for him to munch on them as they are over 50% veg.  I wouldn't have thought to try James on Beet and shallot flavour products before but won't hesitate now that I know how much he enjoys them, and if he is anything like his Daddy then he'll soon be moving away from the 'Mild' curry flavour products and on to the more spicy goods!

As a thank you for completing the taste test, the pack also contained a couple of packs of products which were already available - some cheese and onion rice crackers and some apple crisps.  I noted that James wasn't particularly too fussed about the apple crisps - he sucked them and kept pretending to eat them but gave up!  Maybe this is a sign that he won't be interested in dried fruits???!  The cheese and onion rice crackers were a little more successful but he wasn't overwhelmed by them like the veg crackers.
