    YUMMY YUMMY!

    "My grandson loved it! We served half mixed with a meat pouch & the other half for him to eat with his fingers, and he enjoyed it both ways."

    CORINA M. (5/5)

    Mom and toddler approved

    "My son’s absolute favorite. I have an incredibly picky 15 month old and I can always count on papaya sunrise when he refuses to eat anything else. It’s packed with veggies but smells like fruit so we are happy all around."

    Ava C. (5/5)

    My son’s ABSOLUTE favorite

    "This is a 10/10 for my son. It can be a struggle feeding him because if he’s not interested mealtime will take forever! But with this meal he’s focused wanting more. Eats this one right up! This is a great combo. Love the cinnamon for flavor and chia seed for fiber. This is the kind of meal I love for my son. I want his meals to be delicious with actual veggies for him to enjoy. This one hits all the spots."

    Perfect!

    "Excellent products and my toddler loved it, just added our usually seasoning to it because that’s what she likes and she almost finished it along with other sides. This was for a 1 year old."
