Do your kids love fruit? Emma does! But sometimes we’re on-the-go, making eating fruit a little tougher. Between sticky fingers and juice dripping on the car, fruit isn’t often our go-to snack when we’re headed out.
Today was the first day of our homeschool co-op classes, and we had to pack lunches. I debated on which fruit to add to Emma’s lunchbox. The apples would be brown if I cut them ahead of time (which I needed to do for the sake of time). The strawberries would get squished by her water bottle. Then I thought of the Del Monte Fruit Burst Squeezers. Del Monte had just sent us some in the mail, so we all three tried them last night. They got the thumbs up all around.
Emma enjoyed part of her Fruit Burst Squeezer at lunchtime today but didn’t have time to finish it. Because it has a cap, we were able to re-cap it and pop it back in her lunchbox. She finished the rest of it in the car on the way home. (And I’m happy to report that there were no sticky fingers or drips.)
Del Monte Fruit Burst Squeezers each have 1 1/2 servings of fruit or fruit and veggies in them. They also have no artificial flavors or high fructose corn syrup. That’s important to us.

Any of the fruit only ones would be fantastic….with three kids that pack a lunch (2 daily and 1 occasionally), I think there might be a fight over them!
