    Thank you for choosing us to review this product. Apologies for the delay in submitting a review – we have been away. My 6 year old said he ‘loved’ these and asked me to buy them again. He took them to school in his lunchbox and also enjoyed them at home. My 4 year old however was not so keen on this product. In summary, I would buy this product again and recommend it to friends. I like that it is 50% less fat, oven-baked, no MSG and with real veggies. Thank you once again for the opportunity to try these.

    Recieved a trial of the pizza flavour. Kids 2.5 & 5.5 both loved it and I even took a couple of packets to work to munch on. We’ve just bought a chicken one so looking forward to seeing what that one is like.

    Very excited to try these snacks… I have super active kids and they need lots of quick bites to keep them fueled on the go. I am not keen on giving them bags of chippies all the time, so have been looking for alternatives that are quick an easy to eat, and that the kids will want to eat (some of the healthier alternatives I offer just don’t appeal at the times they are offered, even if they like them usually). Rice crackers don’t fill them up, and I am not a fan of artificial colours/flavours so was definitely keen to try something else. So far it’s just my 10 year old who has tried them, and he thinks they are great! Perfect size for in between sports, they were tasty and filled him up, and didn’t make him too thirsty. Perfect size as well. He is very happy with the pizza flavour, but did ask if they do a cheese one more like twisties. Looking forward to seeing how they go in the lunchbox – he’ll love them, but will his friends think the packing is for little kids? And will my older one like them too? I’ll report soon!

    Unfortunately the only person who liked these in our family was Daddy. Miss 3 years and Mr 1 yrs didn’t like the flavour. Neither would try more than one chippy. Mummy wasn’t keen on the flavour either. The chippies themselves are cute and the packaging is eye catching but they need a better variety of flavours thst children like, maybe a cheesy flavour. Those would be popular with my kiddos at least.

    Master 8 was keen to give these a try when the Pizza flavoured ons arrived on the doorstep. He had the bag and said they were ok and was keen to take some in his munch box to school. We brought the chicken ones too and the taste was better for him. Great healthy chip option for kids

  6. Sarahcr 24/08/2019 at 9:09 pm

    My kids loved these! Light and crispy with a nice pizza flavour. They have enjoyed them several days this week, and I will buy again.

  7. Papayoyo 24/08/2019 at 8:56 pm

    The kids were excited to try the pizza flavoured twirls. The different shape was definitely intriguing to them and they finished their snacks happy to have something new. Unfortunately second and third tastes they weren’t so into them and preferred to go back to their favourite potato sticks in toast potato flavour. I wouldn’t mind trying the chicken flavour to see how that goes down. Thanks for sending them our way anyway!

  8. sexistarlet 24/08/2019 at 8:35 pm

    We tried the Pizza flavour. They had a lot of flavour, my older children liked them but not my youngest (she prefers the potato sticks which have less flavour). Definitely happy that they are eating something they enjoy that isn’t unhealthy, they come in handy mini packs that are easy to take as a snack when heading out or for lunch boxes. Looking forward to trying the other flavours!

  9. becskirk 24/08/2019 at 3:57 pm

    My son and I tried these – pizza ones. My son did not like them at all but I thought they were not to bad if you only had a few at a time…. too many and they took on a chalky taste ! Definitely could taste pizza flavour first few tries. We might try the other flavour to see if they are liked more as I like the fact they are healthier then other chip products out there.

  10. Waikmumof2 24/08/2019 at 2:35 pm

    We recieved the puzza flavor. First taste, mr2 said ewww. Mr4 (who was sick and not eating) ate the rest, and ended up having to share with his brother who decided he actually did like them. But round 2 was not so successful. They are perfect size, easy to open, but unfortunately not a win from this house.

  11. Jessie-Webb 24/08/2019 at 2:15 pm

    My boys 6 and 3 LOVED LOVED LOVED these!!! If I let them they would have eaten them all. We recieved the pizza flavoured Twirls. I really like these as they are are great for a snack or in the lunchbox and they have 50% less fat and are baked not fried which is alot better for them.

  12. Missnina 24/08/2019 at 11:55 am

    My family enjoyed the pizza twirls we received. It is good to know that they are healthy and were a good snack that wouldn’t spoil their dinner. Happy with this product.

  13. Sam203 24/08/2019 at 11:24 am

    This new range from healtheries is great we have loved the Healtheries products in the past as we love the fact they use natural ingredients with good nutritional contents and no artificial colours. My children are particularly fond of the potato sticks in the range so were keen to give these new twirls a go. The packets are a great size for young children and perfect for lunchboxes and on the go. The snacks themselves are an interesting shape my children likened them to pasta twirls which they thought was pretty fun and unique to other snack foods. I would be interested to try the chicken flavour as my children have tried those in the potato sticks and loved them but weren’t so keen on this pizza flavour. They ate perhaps half a packet each before deciding they didnt like the flavour anymore. I was the same I liked the flavour initially but as I ate more I wasn’t so keen so also didnt finish a packet off.

  14. Malonina 24/08/2019 at 10:56 am

    Unfortunately, for my family, these were not such a hit.They looked like they were going to be delicious and my daughter was super excited to receive them to try but she didn’t like them. I had a try after that but I thought they lacked a little bit of flavour and just found the texture a bit different than I expected. I love that they are a healthy alternative though and maybe the chicken flavor will be better and we will definitely give them a go as pizza flavor can certainly be a bit of a hit and miss with some kids! It was great to give them a go though, thanks for the chance to review!

  15. Beauden Mahon 24/08/2019 at 9:51 am

    My son Beauden loves it and I do too because it’s baked, no msg and artificial colour. We had the pizza flavour, it was crunchy and it taste good. I like it when he show me the empty packet and say “ Mommy look I finished it, more please”.
    Thinking to make the packaging environmentally friendly would be great.

  16. samara 23/08/2019 at 10:19 pm

    All 3 kiddies loved these. The taste was surprisingly nice and I had a few! The flavour went down well and were a good easy snack whilst out and about. A good snack pack size and the kids munched them down quickly. A little messy with a few crumbs spilled but overall a nice, healthy snack which appealed to the kids.

    The kids and I were so happy when we received a multi 8 pack of Healtheries oven baked twists from Kidspot to try and review we got Pizza flavor -Yummy I don’t know who enjoys receiving things in the mail more me or the kids. I gave each of my children a packet to try as soon as we got them they looked so delicious one of the first things one of my kiddos says was “Mum these say veges” ha-ha kids. I said ” yeah but you cant taste them try them” he reluctantly tried them mainly because they also say pizza flavor on the packet and he loves pizza. My other children however were not fazed that the packet said “Vege” plus they also love pizza.In my household I have one real health nut who will choose healthy food over sweets any day just doesn’t really like sweets and she loved these however my other children found them to be quite tomato-ey tasting i also tried a packet myself they were yummy but the tomato flavoring was quite overpowering so it was a 50/50 in our household. I’m a sucker for anything in small portion sized packets just because it makes life so much easier and food doesn’t go stale or funny i defiantly will be buying the Healtheries oven baked twists We will try the other flavor it will be interesting to see what the other flavor tastes like thank you Kidspot for giving myself and my children an opportunity to trial a product we really enjoyed it and i found it fun to review the product hopefully we will be able to trail more in the future

      *Twirls* i am so sorry for some reason my computer auto corrected it to twirls

  18. steff 23/08/2019 at 9:17 pm

    Thanks for allowing us to trial these. We received the pizza flavour and they were enjoyed by everyone, including me. We found the packets were easy to open and quite eye catching. While I would prefer a little extra flavour, my daughter really enjoyed the taste. She loved the shape and the packs are a great size. I love that they are baked and not fried, so have less fat than other chips. Also with natural flavours and no preservatives they are better for you.They are great for a little snack and perfect for the lunchbox. Definitely recommend these and will purchase these again. Looking forward to trying the chicken flavour.

  19. Victoria Gardner 23/08/2019 at 9:12 pm

    We received the pizza flavour and my son who is 4 loved the first packet.
    Hubby came home later that night and enjoyed his first packet too.
    Neither of them wanted more but I tried and liked them so more for me!
    The size of the packs is about right and they are easy to grab when we are on our way out the door in a rush.
    I like that all of the packaging can go into the soft plastics recycling, it’s always a bonus when it doesn’t end up in landfill.
    Thanks for the opportunity to try these, I am keen to try the chicken flavour next time!

  20. Tracydorset 23/08/2019 at 7:43 pm

    MY KIDS LOVED THEM!! They liked them so much better then crackers! They said the flavours were very yummy! They asked me to buy more so they can have them in their school lunches! Which is so awesome as they get sick of the same old things that we buy! Was really stoked to find a new healthier product for them!

  21. Inge Waghorne 23/08/2019 at 3:59 pm

    We received the pizza flavour ones and oh my they so yummy. Miss was sick for over a week and didn’t eat much till these twirls arrived, she absolutely loved it and just keeps on asking for more. Already on the list to buy more. Thank you Healtheries for making healthier snacks for our kids that they love.

  22. Levi Rouse 23/08/2019 at 2:17 pm

    My kids were so excited to receive a pack of Pizza flavoured Twirls! These healthy potato chip alternatives have proved a huge hit in our house. The kids have been taking them in school lunches, and also having them as a snack at home.
    I like that they have no artificial colours or flavours, and that they are vegetable based – my kids just love that they taste good!
    I also love that they are low in sugar – these cheeky devil manages to sneak in everywhere possible lately!
    It would be great to see these in a larger pack size, so that they can be put into lunchboxes without the extra packaging. Our school (along with many others) are making a real push to reduce waste, so a more eco-friendly option would be awesome.
    We will definitely buy this product again, the kids are already nagging me to try the chicken flavour!

  23. crista23 23/08/2019 at 1:41 pm

    We received the pizza flavoured Healtheries oven baked twirls today and they have been a BIG hit!
    My 6 year old, 3 year old and 18 month old all polished off a pack and there were no complaints! I tried some too and found them light and crunchy with a quite nice flavour that’s not too overbearing (like some other pizza flavoured crackers etc)
    All my kids love the healtheries snacks – the go to is usually the chicken potato sticks. So these will be a nice alternative for the lunch box.The packs are a perfect size for the lunch box and had a decent amount inside.
    We had already tried the chicken flavour prior to this and they are just as scrummy so now I can definitely recommend both!

  24. Lizzie 23/08/2019 at 10:28 am

    We received the pizza flavoured Healtheries oven baked twirls. My 6 year old was so excited to see it in the letterbox and we had to open it straight away. I didn’t mind too much as it was after swimming and my son needed a snack before dinner. He gives it a big thumbs up. My 16 month old also devoured a few. I tried one myself and it’s very light and crunchy. The flavour is quite nice too as it’s not too strong but enough flavour that the kids find it tasty. My kids love the healtheries range of snacks, especially the potato sticks. But they do get sick of having the same thing so it’s nice to be able to offer another snack and knowing that it’s got veggies in it is a bonus!!
    Thank you for letting us trial the Healtheries oven baked twirls. I recommend this product and I know that we will have to try the chicken flavour too!

  25. Nikkib90 23/08/2019 at 7:46 am

    We were excited to find Healtheries Ovenbaked Twirls in pizza flavor delivered to our door. My sons, aged 8 & 10 are always looking for new ways to add some excitement to their lunchboxes. We were all delighted with the twisty goodness that was in each packet – there was enough for a good serving to fill a hunger gap. The flavor was just right, and the twists weren’t greasy or over powdered with flavouring. I’d love to see less packaging, as we are doing our best to eliminate plastic from our home, so possible a larger bag that we could portion out would be excellent. Our school has a no single use plastic policy as well so the boys emptied their packages into their lunchboxes instead of taking the packets. Overall a good product from a company that I trust has the best of health at heart for families. Thank you for the opportunity to trial this product.

  26. Earthangelxox 23/08/2019 at 7:05 am

    We received the pizza flavour which my kids weren’t too keen on but
    i thought were really nice. We ended up buying the chicken ones in our weekly grocery shop which the kids thought were the nicest flavour out of them both and the packets didnt last long enough for school lunches for a week

  27. Niki.stargazer 23/08/2019 at 12:24 am

    Thank you so much for the opportunity to try the pizza flavour! I found these very light and easy to eat (my toddler and I were fighting over them haha!) They’re not incredibly strong flavour wise but I found that great, the size of each chip is good too so my youngest could easily hold and eat one too. I’ll definitely be buying these for my daughter to put in her bag for an easy snack while we’re out and about or for an easy snack at afternoon tea on those days where I just really don’t have the time.
    I was really happy to see the sugar and fat content being very low

  28. lili 22/08/2019 at 9:47 pm

    Thank you for letting us trial Twirls Pizza flavour. Looking at the packaging, its all good and healthy information of what is inside. I like that it is 50% less fat, oven-baked, no MSG and with real veggies. However, I was surprised that it is not NZ made.
    My son was excited to taste it and he likes it. He said, “it tastes good! It tastes flavourish! Crunchy!”
    I would recommend this product to others because its a healthy snack. Its convenient for on the go snacking and for the lunchbox. The twirl shapes is fun too!

  29. TraceyF 22/08/2019 at 6:28 pm

    We received the pizza twirls, but unfortunately none of my 3 kids liked the flavour or the fact that they got stuck in their teeth.

  30. Samantha2019 22/08/2019 at 5:14 pm

    We trailed out the pizza flavour! WOW they are so good, I even had to have a few 🤣. I love knowing that I can take a yummy good snack and put it in my kids lunch that we can all enjoy too, would really like to see a bigger resealable bag with these in as it would be alot better.
