Delicious Organic Snacks for picky little eaters

I don't know any one year olds or two year olds who are not picky eaters. Maybe they exist in a far far away land. Who knows?

Here are two delicious and healthy treats that are never rejected by our kids: Organic Grapes and Organic Yogurt.

Grapes are an excellent snack and kids love their shape and love to pick them with their fingers to put in their mouths. Even though expensive, you should always try to buy organic grapes. If you find organic grapes on sale. Buy them!! Here's why: Grapes have been found to contain high amounts of pesticides. They are on the Dirty Dozen Foods list
"Imported grapes run a much greater risk of contamination than those grown domestically. Vineyards can be sprayed with different pesticides during different growth periods of the grape, and no amount of washing or peeling will eliminate contamination because of the grape's thin skin.
Can't find organic? Safer alternatives include blueberries, kiwi and raspberries."

Another all time favorite treat that everyone around here just loves is the Stony Field Whole Milk Yogurt. Perfect for breakfast, perfect for snacks, perfect for dessert! The cream on top is just too deliciously decadent! Definitely and adult and kid favorite. And on top of that Stonyfield is a very cool company. They have coupons that you can use to save money on their products
