Hello Kitty Fruit Snacks Views
When I was little & had fruit snacks in my lunch, I used to eat all the regular ones first & then save the opaque pastel ones for the end. Do you know what I mean?On the left is a normal snack pack (with just a couple pastel ones). On the left is a pic of the most amazing invention EVER- Hello Kitty Snack Packs- they are full of only the marshmello-ish bites! Yummy!
So while on a trip to the 99 Cent Only store I decided to pick up a couple of brands that seemed to be positioning themselves for kids but not made by candy companies. I found the Betty Crocker Scooby Doo Fruit Flavored Snacks and the Kelloggd’s Hello Kitty Fruit Flavored Snacks. Both say they have 100% of the RDA of Vitamin C and have six flavors (naturally and artificially flavored).
The Hello Kitty snacks come in one large bag (3.8 ounces) while the Scooby-Doo ones come in four pouches of .9 ounces each (3.6 ounces total weight for the box). The portion control of the Scooby-Doo ones is a nice feature, since ito’s only 80 calories for a pack. (And if you have kids who canf’t share from a single bag, that might be a good option.)
So when I first looked at these I thought, Scooby Doo wins ... the first ingredient is fruit juice! But upon looking closer, Scooby Doo has lumped apple & pear juice together as a single ingredient, while Hello Kitty breaks them out into two separate ingredients, which makes them fall, by proportion, lower on the list.
