Slammers - My New Favorite Mom Hack

Organic Slammers Pureed SuperFood Snack, a Healthy Choice for School Lunches and On-the-Go

By Melissa Basgall, Macaroni Kid Kansas City Kansas - Leavenworth August 7, 2019


As a Macaroni Mom, our family is constantly on the go. Every spare moment we have is spent doing activities and having fun all across our city. From the pool to the park, the zoo to the theater, and beyond, we are always on the move. Organic Slammers SuperFood Snacks have been an on-the-go staple for us this summer. They are perfect for tossing in a bag for later, or grabbing as we head out the door. 



My daughter is a huge fan of Slammers. Every time I say, “Okay, everybody, let’s get in the car!”, she runs to the pantry to grab one for the car ride. This is one snack I have no issue with her grabbing on her own at any time. Slammers are premium fruit purees, created to not only add more superfood (like beets and acai) to their applesauce blends but also as a great way to give kids a healthy snack without preparation. 



Last week my daughter’s preschool held an end of summer party. Each child was asked to bring a snack to share. Most parents know that finding a snack to send to school can be challenging since we want to take the dietary needs and restrictions of all children into consideration. Slammers says no to GMO, added sugars, gluten, peanuts and artificial colors, which makes them a school-friendly, fantastic snack to share.



This year is my kiddo's first year of preschool, which means it's the first time I get to pack a lunch each day. It will be so wonderful to just toss this healthy snack in her lunch box, because I know she loves Slammers, and I’m confident they will fuel her with all the awesome fruity goodness she needs to be a great little first-time student.



You can find Slammers in the applesauce aisle of your local grocery store, and they come in 6 unique and flavorful varieties. To check out all the different flavors, ingredients, and nutritional information, you can head to https://slammerssnacks.com/
