I typically give them plain yogurt and mix in our own fruit to avoid sugar rushes and crashes in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1065519 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 16:31:06 +0000 sarac 1065519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Healthy, lol. No way. Tube yogurts are tragically sugar filled. I tried so hard to avoid them, but they're just so useful when they're frozen. I switched to chobani, so at least my daughter is getting great protein with them. But healthy, no. Not at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1065162 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 14:04:56 +0000 Dapple Grey 1065162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The 3 check marked facts on the top right corner is what people think makes it "healthy" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1065141 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 13:59:43 +0000 Mrsbells 1065141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: haha funny that the kids love it. They probably love it for the same reasons (bright color and chalky taste)<br /> @Mrs. Pen: yeah those reusable pouces are great for travelling or eating on the go </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1065140 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 13:59:11 +0000 regberadaisy 1065140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fancyfunction: @mediagirl: no joke. My old coworker's kids are 7 and 9 now. She never fed them McDonalds, etc. She's very crunchy. Her kids never ask for it, they think it's gross and would rather have sushi for lunch any day of the week than anything else. hahah She's kinda one of my mom heros! haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1065137 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 13:56:56 +0000 fancyfunction 1065137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just give her plain yogurt and mix in some fruit or veggies. But yes I do semi-dread her seeing other kids lunches/snacks at school and begging for the crap they eat! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064996 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 13:14:24 +0000 MamaJ 1064996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've noticed people tend to see the "good source of X" on the outside and think "hey it's healty!" Without reading the true ingredients. DH and I used to do this too. We started reading the ingredients when we shop and we were pretty shocked at the "healty" things we were buying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064936 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:58:20 +0000 sorrycharlie 1064936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: same!</p> <p>I feed LO yogurt once a day (she never eats more than 1/2 for some reason) and it has actually helped her digestive issues. She eats YoBaby, but tried a bite of DH's Chobani recently and liked it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064932 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:56:55 +0000 regberadaisy 1064932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: please do!

LO is almost 17 months and she has been so picky it's driving me insane. It's impossible to get my formerly great eater to eat. :(</p> <p>@Mrsbells: Ahh okay. LO loves feeding herself, so the pouches are always great for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064912 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:52:35 +0000 Bao 1064912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I give LO yogurt a few times a week, it may not be the healthiest but she's going through a picky stage and she will eat that. There are much worse things she can eat. I guess I'm not overly picky about what she eats though, to an extent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064900 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:49:02 +0000 blackbird 1064900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A lot of people say yogurt is healthy, but when you see that it has as much sugar as it does, it's really quite unhealthy. </p> <p>I love the idea of squeezable yogurt--and we ate plenty of these, frozen, as kids--and I by no means make my own yogurt or anything, but I avoid Yoplait like the plague ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064883 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:44:22 +0000 looch 1064883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BananaPancakes: tell me about it! My son stopped eating at 18 months old and it has been the most stressful part of my life this past year! I'll wall you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064877 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:42:34 +0000 BananaPancakes 1064877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: Almost 17 months. He turned 12 months old and basically stopped eating everything but fruit and randomly chicken. Some days he eats almost nothing. On those days I don't really care what he eats, as long as he gets something in his belly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064864 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:34:54 +0000 looch 1064864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BananaPancakes: How old is your son? Not to threadjack, but mine can be super picky and there are days when he literally will not eat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064857 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:32:46 +0000 cascademom 1064857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just started giving LO Stoneyfield whole milk baby yogurt. I checked the ingredients and it seems decent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064819 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:20:41 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1064819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: I love those little pouches! I really want to get some for J. </p> <p>I avoid processed yogurt. I pretty much just buy the whole milk plain from 365 WF brand, it's a good deal I think and I just add fruit to his as well. He doesn't need sugar.</p> <p>Also all those additives are sketchy... like the huffpo article said - many information on those ingredients is inconsclusive and my thinking is that until something is PROVED to be SAFE, why take the risk? Just because it hasn't *yet* proved harmful doesn't mean it is... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064808 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:17:24 +0000 BananaPancakes 1064808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use the Stoneyfield ones a couple times a week, but I'm defintely not going around claiming its some super healthy snack. I use them to get my son to ingest anything on days he doesn't eat. He'll usually get through half of one, just because its gimmicky. Personally I think sucking anything from a tube is gross. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064802 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:15:41 +0000 mediagirl 1064802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I'm already dreading this since I send M's lunch and snacks to daycare and every other kid there gets the crap food they serve. When she gets to school age, we're sending her to a private school where parents have to provide lunches and snacks. While other kids may bring more unhealthy snacks and lunches, for the most part, problem solved. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064782 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 12:11:45 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1064782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree, we have bought the ChoBani tubes but I freeze them and give them to her as "ice cream". She eats a normal cup of chobani for breakfast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064685 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:46:29 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1064685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried GoGurt once since it came with a Panera Bread meal and it was disgusting! First I was shocked by the bright color and the chalky taste. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064571 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:15:14 +0000 Mrsbells 1064571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: yes I do have that pouch but the teachers at her daycare prefer the jar for now because is easier to feed her with it, she still isnt all that great at feeding herself from the pouch, but I do help her with the pouch when we are in the car or out for the day </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064561 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:12:24 +0000 Mrsbells 1064561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: wow I didnt even think of that.

Interesting idea there!</p> <p>I think Earths Best makes Greek Yogurt pouches, or maybe it's Plum Organics? No idea, but I keep a few in my desk if I am going to have a late lunch....for me I appreciate the shelf stable aspect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064555 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:10:13 +0000 Freckles 1064555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOL, i wrote that just as you posted about the LGP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064554 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:09:48 +0000 Freckles 1064554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't you have the little green pouch? I would just put the yogurt into that instead of using the glass jars you're currently using. That's what i do!</p> <p>I agree, it's just lack of knowledge (*not* saying they are dumb, just that they don't know). People think yogurt = healthy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064552 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:09:03 +0000 regberadaisy 1064552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: as I was googling I saw reusable "go gurt" pouches! haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064551 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:08:09 +0000 Mrsbells 1064551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: we actually have the little green pouch too, so I sometimes use that. its basically a resuable pouch.</p> <p>@locavore_mama: wow thanks for that link it just confims my concerns</p> <p>@prettylizy: yeah good point!</p> <p>@T-Mom: Oh I see. I wasnt even aware there was another brand</p> <p>@looch: yeah I think when she is older sh ewill definitely notice the difference between her food and other people's... hopefully I figure out something by then!</p> <p>@LindsayInNY: yes I think you are right that it is so convenient and easy to freeze and eat </p> [attach=1326/13/mslzhm.594x329.LittleGreenPouchMain.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/go-gurt#post-1064543 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:05:21 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1064543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Go-gurt is not healthy. I'd give it to my son as a junky snack on occasion but I wouldn't call it a daily thing.</p> <p>I get that they do it for covenience's sake but, get plain Greek yogurt and put it into a feeding pouch. Come on now... </p>
