Uncle Tobys® Fruit FixTM - a new snacking sensation for kids
Mums know that snacking is essential to keep their kids energised and help with their concentration levels throughout the day, but finding a tasty and healthy snack is not an easy task, and being able to find a different assortment for each day of the week is even harder. It's been long proven that variety is the spice of life and kids snacks are no exception to this rule – but without fresh and exciting ideas there's no guarantee they'll always be eaten!
By adding Uncle Tobys® Fruit FixTM to the snacking mix, Mum can give her kids a full serve of fruit in a tasty and healthy conveniently packaged snack.
The three delicious Uncle Tobys® Fruit FixTM flavour combinations will not only send kids over the moon, but Mum as well. Full of the goodness of 99 per cent fruit ingredients – including fruit puree, juice and fibre – no artificial colours or flavours, Uncle Tobys® Fruit FixTM is approved by the National Heart Foundation Tick program - making it a nutritious packaged snack that Mums will be happy to include in their pantry.
To make sure their kids are eating the healthiest snack, Mums are reminded to look at the thumbnail guide at the front of pack for the following nutrition criteria:
- ENERGY: Make sure the snacks give you the appropriate amount of energy. Choose snacks less than 600kj per serve (7% DI or less)
- FAT: More important than the amount of fat is the type of fat a food has. Look for snacks that have less than 2g saturated fat per serve (8% DI or less)
- SODIUM: Salt (or sodium chloride) – look for snacks that have less than 100g per serve (4% DI or less)
Uncle Tobys® Fruit FixTM will be available in supermarkets nationally from April.
Release Date: 25th March 2009
