Tried and Tested: Tasty Fruitus bars for children’s lunch box snack

School lunch boxes are entirely joyless for children without a tasty treat to brighten the afternoon.

Avoid the wrath of the school lunch box inspectors by ditching the chocolate and including Fruitus bars, a healthier option and snack bar from Lyme Regis Foods and Ultra-Body.

Made entirely from fruit, there are no added colours, preservatives or sugar and will be an easy way to include one portion of your child’s 5-a-day.

Chopsy Baby tested out a range of Fruitus bars, and fruit and cereal  Grizzly Bars in a fussy five-year-old’s lunch box.

The test was a success with the child not noticing the chocolate treat had been swapped for one containing fruit. Added with a lunch time apple and carrot sticks, up to three portions of fruit and vegetables were consumed within one meal.
