ABOUT VOOTS VEGGIE-FRUIT TARTS

Voots Veggie-Fruit Tarts are a children’s supplement made from 11 real fruits and vegetables, which are dehydrated, crushed, blended with Vitamin C and other ingredients, and made into two delicious chewable berry-flavored tarts. Made without artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives, Voots Veggie-Fruit Tarts are a fun and easy way to supplement kids’ diets with a great taste they’ll love. Voots were designed with kids in mind, but moms and dads can join in too!

MY THOUGHTS

I am always on the lookout for healthy items to add to my daughter’s diet (my son will be no exception once he is older!), especially quick, convenient items that she can have in the morning before school or I can throw in her lunch bag. Voots definitely fit the convenience profile I look for, though my first reaction to trying them was a bit hesitant – I am not usually a fan of anything that claims to be a supplement for fruits and vegetables. Any health-conscious mom knows that nothing is a perfect replacement for a real fruit or veggie, no matter how much it might claim to be. However, I gave them a try and I am quite glad I did.

Upon receiving Voots for review, I immediately read over the packaging. I was quickly impressed because the box itself states “Not a substitute for eating fruits and vegetables, which provide fiber, vitamins, and minerals”. Better yet, it’s stamped right on the front in a big enough font to be easily seen. Voots was sure to make it known that these are not intended to substitute fruits and veggies. Bravo!

With my initial fear being placated, I then read over the nutrition facts: 100% Vitamin C Daily Value is met in just 1 packet. Great! I also love the amount of fruit and veggie powders contained in these two small tablets: Cranberry, Grape Seed, Apple, Blueberry, Prune, Zucchini, Sweet Potato…just to name a few. Some very healthy, super-antioxidant-containing foods!

The initial flavor of Voots is tasty. They remind me of Sweet Tarts, and I could actually pull out flavors of a few specific fruits listed in the ingredients. My only complaint is the texture. They are a bit grainy once they begin to be chewed, which doesn’t go over well at all with my daughter. She likes the taste, but the graininess is enough to cause a slight battle in the mornings when she is told to eat them.

Overall, I am pleased with the convenience of these little tarts and what they claim to offer. It’s easy to have my daughter eat a packet of Voots along with her daily vitamin in the morning. Is there any proof that they make my child healthier? No, but they certainly don’t hurt.
