Re: what are these squeeze pouches
Target. Ella's Kitchen or Happy Baby Organics. About the only veggies I can get into my little guy. I swear I will send him to high school with those suckers, lol.
There is some brand that makes big squeeze pouches of purees but I never used those & they're not really a snack I don't think- I"m not sure if a LO can hold it & eat it (the ones I've seen seem kind of big).
but if you're referring to the applesauce based ones, the ones I use are the same as PP and also trader joe's has them. TJs are just applesauce, the other ones do some mixed fruit, apple- strawberry, apple banana, etc. They are in the aisle w/ the applesauce & canned fruit.
Also earth's best has squeeze pouch yogurts too.
I love them for easy on the go snacks as well. The only thing is, my kids are just now (20+ mos) able to try to hold them on their own, they would always grab & squeeze & the applesauce would go shooting out all over their face, shirt, etc.... very frustrating. now I'm trying to teach them to gently hold the sides & they suck instead of squeezing but I only let them do it themselves if I don't care if it ends up everywhere, lol.
DD loves these. We buy GoGoSqueez and Happy Tots. You can get a box of four of GoGoSqueeze in different apple sauce flavors (with cinammon, with strawberry, with banana, etc.), but I've never seen the Happy Tots sold in packages.
Anyway, they are great for on the go. We always take them on day trips and I pack tons and tons of them when we go on vacation internationally. DD started eating them around 15 or 16 months without any problems. I think she squeezed the first pack ever all over herself, but she got the hang of it very quickly.
We've bought the Happy Baby Organic and Ellas Kitchen kind before at Target. My dd loves 'em, but I don't give them to her that often, she'll eat fruits and veggies with her meal, but they are nice to have in the bag as a back up just in case.
My dd does really well with holding them and just sucking the contents right out.
DS loves them he'll eat at least 1 a day! I can't let him walk around in starbucks or he starts grabbing them outta the basket!
i buy them on the go at starbucks or for half the price at Whole Foods
Oh and G has been eating them himself for a few weeks, I'd say about 11.5 months we bought him one at starbucks... he quickly fell in love! We've had one instance of a mess he got too excited and squeezed too hard. it was quickly cleaned up.

DS LOVES them. I store like 5 of them at daycare because he'll refuse lunch and they'll just give him a couple of these!
supposedly you can also stick in the freezer and give as a slushy treat in the summer. I'll be trying that!
The ones that are the fruit/veggie mix are in the baby food section at Target (Happy Baby, Ella Organics and Plum Tots), but the fruit ones (Go Go Squeeze) are in the apple sauce section. I also recently saw that my super Target carries squeeze pouches that are Sponge Bob and Dora themed.
