Lisa, the Health Nut

I'm lisa and I loooove healthy food!  The lifestyle I chose to live is eating only natural or organic food products, minimally processed whenever possible.  What I can't stand is that people may  automatically assume all "health food" that I eat isn't flavorful or tasty.  THIS IS NOT TRUE!  Why would I eat stuff that doesn't taste good?  So my mission is to spread the word that "healthy" does not mean "tasteless".  Healthy food can be just as yummy as the not-so healthy types!   I'll let you know what foods are good, and which ones aren't so good. :)

GoGo SqueeZ Applesauce on the Go AppleApple and AppleBanana

Applesauce is definitely one of my favorite things to eat. By itself, drizzled on waffles/pancakes, or even as a dip, I find it really versatile and really tasty! But what’s a girl to do when she wants applesauce, but doesn’t have time to eat it, or doesn’t have a spoon? Well….

GoGo SqueeZ makes “applesauce on the go” ! These are packets of applesauce that have an almost strawlike place to sip out the applesauce on the top. What’s also good, is that the top can be taken off and put back on again, literally making it easy to take a sip and then save some for later!

These all natural applesauces come in several flavors, and the company sent me the AppleApple and AppleBanana to try. I was mostly excited for the AppleBanana- combining two of my favorite things- apples AND bananas!  According to the website, these are preservative free, dairy free, gluten free, and one packet is equivalent to one fruit serving. They also contain no added sugar! (Sounds like my kind of applesauce!)

AppleApple- wow. this was actually really tasty! It kind of reminded me of an applesauce smoothie! It was very smooth in consistency, no chunks or bumps, and the perfect amount of sweetness. I had this one with my dinner, and was the perfect compliment!

AppleBanana-similar to the AppleApple flavor, but with a hint of banana. The banana part wasn’t too sweet, neither was the apple, but rather just right. Really tasty, I really enjoyed this one just as is!

I really liked the cute cartoons on the outside of the packets. I also think these would be a good replacement for those gels that I often see in stores meant for runners, bikers, etc. I think if I ever go on a long run, I can hold on to one of these for a sip of all natural energy! :) I also like the convienence of the cap, and I actually did use these at home, too. I just squeezed out the amount that I wanted onto my plate (and ended up sipping up the rest!). I would like to try the other flavors as well (especially AppleCinnamon!), as they look tasty, too. Overall, these get 5 stars :D
