I don't think he is too old - my 3 and 5 yr old still like to eat the fruit puree pouches - I think of it as a healthy snack!

30? We don't rely on them heavily, but I like to have them along if we have to eat on the go, and Ellie takes them sometimes for a snack at school because she is very anti-vegetable/fruit and it's better than nothing.

Still using them well into the toddler years over here!

I've seen adults eat pouches on occasion!

And I have no issues giving my son, who is almost 2, pouches - especially the ones with green veggies in them which he wouldn't eat otherwise!

My 5 and 7 year olds love the apple sauce pouches ... *shrug* it's a fast, contained mess snack.

We have the applesauce pouches and sometimes buy the fruit and yogurt ones, A is 17 months and loves them!

LO likes the fruit/veggie pouches, so I use them for on-the-run snacks when my fresh fruit reserves are gone. We get the ones with no added sugar/fruit juice. I eat them from time to time too, because they taste good and there is usually one hanging out in the bottom of my bag.

When he was younger (he's 3yo), I'd occasionally use them as an extra veggie boost for days when I felt like his veggie consumption was too low. I don't think pouches particularly impacted his willingness to eat other food. He's not a picky eater now at all.

My son is 21 months and we still use the fruit pouches and green bean pouches regularly.

My LO still eats them at 2. She eats them as her after school snack on the way home.

I still give them to Charlie at 4. They're such an easy snack on the go, and sometimes I pack them into his lunchbox for his after school snack.

That said when he was younger, he really had an issue with food textures and ate soups and purees for a long time. He outgrew it eventually but if he had an issue I would definitely limit them if it affected his oral muscles.

DS is three and I keep a small supply in the house. He probably only eats one per week, but he still likes them and it's a good way to get in extra fruit and veggies, especially in the winter.

My almost 3 yo loves pouches
