During my research for healthy lunch box ideas, I came across a drink product I had not yet encountered: Froose® . Invented by a Mom concerned about her kids health, Froose® is made to be a healthier juice by incorporating whole-grains. After reading about the product on their site, Froose® appears to be a great idea and good substitute for standard juice boxes. Froose® is a combination of whole grains and 100% fruit juice, therefore delivering fiber and whole grain nutrients beneficial to growing kids.
The good: healthy alternative to juice for kids, excellent source of soluble and insoluble fiber (same amount as eating a whole piece of fruit), half the sugar found in regular serving of juice, organic ingredients
The not so good: As far as I can tell from their web site, the product is delivered in juice box form, which is wasteful. Hopefully the company will come out in a gallon size so that smaller servings can be put in reusable bottles for the lunchbox.
Have you tried Froose® ? If so, what do you think of it and do you have a favorite flavor?
