    We got to trial the pizza flavour. The packets are of generous portions. The pizza flavour is alot better than the chicken. I wasnt a big fan of the texture but the kids didn’t mind, They did say it was a little strange but not enough to put them off eating them. I did separate one packet between two kids lunchboxes as there was alot in there. I will purchase these again.

    We received the Pizza flavour to trial, and funnily enough I had purchased the chicken flavour the day before so we got to try out both flavours.

    It was a little bit hit and miss for our family, but the majority vote was a thumbs up. 2 out of my 3 kids liked them and hubby was a fan too.

    They are packed full of flavour and definitely feel like a much healthier/lighter alternative to regular potato chips. These are a much better option to keep on hand for snacks at home and while out and about, also convenient being in individual packets. Both flavors are great.

    The serving size per packet is pretty generous too, they don’t come back asking for a second packet as one is plenty!

    Definitely a good snack to keep stocked in the cupboard

    We recieved the pizza flavour. My daughter and I really enjoyed the flavour but I personally didn’t like the texture and found it stuck to my teeth in a kind of pasty texture/wet material.
    Probably wouldn’t buy these.

    We received the Pizza flavoured twirls. My 2 younger children aged 3 and 5 didnt like them. My 9 year old said they were ok but there were alot in the bag – a bit too many.
    I wasnt that keen on chips either. I wouldnt purchase again

  5. Helga88 28/08/2019 at 7:30 pm

    Was tasty and crunchy. We had pizza flavour and my kids loved them .. have gone and bought more now .. always looking for new snacks for the lunchbox so I am very glad to be introduced to these .. thank you Kidspot and Healteries .

  6. Charmaine Mckenzie 28/08/2019 at 5:43 pm

    My whole family has tried these. The kids (aged 9 and 6) both really enjoyed them. My husband and I found that they did not have a lot of flavour. Not unpleasant just not a very strong flavour. These are a handy size for the school lunchbox or when out and about. Would buy again for the kids for convenience and size but not something I would rush to eat again myself

  7. Robyn Lovewell 28/08/2019 at 3:03 pm

    So – they are a great fit in the lunchbox… I did wonder as the packets are quite a bit bigger than some other snacks we’ve tried. Nice and bright and colourful too. Classmates liked the look of them – so that’s a tick for 10/11 year old boys especially! Like some other reviewers, the packing does bother me though. So many of us are trying to move towards minimising waste, just taking the snacks out of the small packet just to go to school doesn’t achieve this, but having a large bag to take smaller servings from would reduce waste considerably. Perhaps Healtheries will do a promotion where fans of their products can get a cloth/resuable snack bag with their branding on it? Then supply their snack foods in large bags 🤔

    Thank you so much for these delicious snacks. We received the pizza flavoured ones and the whole family loved them. The flavour was just right – not too strong, even the fussy kid who doesn’t like pizza liked these. The shape was unusual and fun. I wouldn’t buy them again as there is simply too much unrecyclable packaging for such a small snack which makes these a bit of an environmental nightmare if we’re being honest. I’d love to see the packaging addressed which would mean I could buy them without feeling guilty about the planet.

  9. CMack 27/08/2019 at 10:32 pm

    My son had a bit of a tummybug so we had to wait to trial these…when I looked in the cupboard today the packs were all gone and he said “Mom, I’ve taken them to school the last few days and then dad and I had the last 2 packets last night!”.

    Seems like they loved it 🙂 Apparently they had a very good amount of “flavour and crunch” according to my 10-year old.

    The packet is also a good size to fit into school lunchboxes!

  10. lisabell 27/08/2019 at 9:00 pm

    My 2 and 4 year old really enjoyed these, great alternative to regular chips. We received the pizza flavour and my boys loved the taste. We have been using them as a lunchbox filler and afternoon snack treat instead of potato chips and they have gone down a treat in our household.

  11. Karleen 27/08/2019 at 7:41 pm

    Unfortunately my 2 year old didnt like them, I tried them to and didnt really like them so I really was hoping she would like them. They are very convenient and easy to open.

  12. irishgreen416 27/08/2019 at 3:31 pm

    We had our two boys try these (we received the pizza flavour) and both of them liked them and thought they were fantastic. When asked why they like them, our youngest responded “because we eat them” which was cute, but not very helpful. They are great that they are packaged for lunch boxes or a grab and go snack, but as a sustainable focused adult, I wish they were more environmentally-friendly. But because they are much healthier than regular potato chips (since they’re baked, have 50% less fat, and no preservatives) I will still consider replacing the crisps that my kids get with these.

  13. Cheri 27/08/2019 at 2:49 pm

    My two daughters 6 and 9 love them and I find them a lot better than chips.

  14. Monza39 27/08/2019 at 1:38 pm

    2 out of my 3 boys absolutely loved these and now I must buy them each grocery shop! We got the pizza flavor, not sure if they will be tempted to try the chicken flavor. A really great snack for the lunchbox or after school. thanks for the opportunity to trial them 🙂

  15. Rebecca James 27/08/2019 at 10:52 am

    We received the pizza flavour for our trial and unfortunately the kids (2, 4 & 6) didn’t like them at all. I was hoping they would as I’m always on the hunt for healthier alternatives for lunchboxes and snacking. I really liked that the fat content is lower than traditional chips so I bought a pack of the chicken flavour but the kids didn’t like them either. Looks like hubby will be finishing these as he liked them. Thanks so much for the opportunity to try these!

  16. nsimpson 27/08/2019 at 10:50 am

    These were a hit with my 3yo (received the pizza flavour), not so much my 7yo although she did finish the one bag she tried so they couldn’t have been too bad! Great size for lunchboxes or snacks on the go – I don’t buy pre-packaged snacks like this often but I would definitely look for these next time I need something along these lines.

  17. Kaneysmith@xtra.co.nz 27/08/2019 at 1:57 am

    We were given the pizza ones to trial and my 2yo son couldnt get enough of them. He thought they were absolutely delicious and kept asking for more. Hes quite a fussy eater so was happy he was actually enjoying a healthy snack. The twirls are the perfect size for little hands. He thought the packaging was good too.

  18. Alice72 26/08/2019 at 9:31 pm

    Thanks for the opportunity to review these. My 4 year old absolutely loved them and would eat all of the packets in the bag at once if I let her! The hubby also likes them. Personally, I don’t really like the flavour, but they aren’t marketed at me! I’ll probably buy these again, they are a good alternative to chips.

  19. Kate Humphries 26/08/2019 at 8:53 pm

    Thank you for the opportunity to try these. My daughter (5) and I tried the pizza flavour. My daughter really loved them and wants more of them. I thought pizza flavour might be too strong but it was actually pleasant. These felt like a treat like chips but I felt good that they were healthier by far. We will buy more and try the Chicken flavour next.

  20. Gaynorbennett81 26/08/2019 at 8:25 pm

    Thank you for this sample! We received the pizza flavour. Great size in terms of packaging and portion. My 8 year old daughter didn’t like them at all. My nearly 2 year old enjoys them. Myself, I like them. The flavour reminds me of burger rings a bit, but healthier! Certainly a lot of taste to them. I also felt that they are a nice texture, not feeling unhealthy / greasy / oily, and quite a light bite.I probably wouldn’t buy them as my daughter isn’t keen, shes obsessed with the Potato Stix instead!

  21. kim007 26/08/2019 at 8:23 pm

    Thanks Kidspot and Healtheries for the opportunity to trial these snacks. I like the fact that the fat content is reduced so they appear healthier than standard packets of chippies. We received the Pizza flavour. My children (aged 5 and 3) enjoyed them but did say that they liked chips better so at this stage I’m unsure whether I would buy them again.

  22. AmandaB 26/08/2019 at 7:49 pm

    We were lucky enough to receive the pizza flavour. My son had a pack as soon as they arrived and he loved them! Perfect size for little hands and he loved the taste. My daughter not so much as she thought they tasted too much like tomato. We will buy again as a treat to have in the cupboards for my son. Thank you for giving us the opportunity.

  23. fmmummy 26/08/2019 at 7:25 pm

    We received the pizza flavour which my 7 year old was super excited about as being allergic to dairy a lot of pizza flavoured snacks contain dairy.
    Both my boys (aged 10 and 7) loved them! They both said the crunch was just right and they liked both the texture and the flavour.
    Will buy again for sure

  24. MrsMillar 26/08/2019 at 6:13 pm

    We took ours on a walk and had a picnic. They were convenient and the 3 year old loved them so much. I felt good giving her a healthy product instead of a deep fried snack

  25. Brooke17 26/08/2019 at 1:04 pm

    I personally didnt like the taste of them but my son did! He scoffed them down so defianlty something I will buy in the future

  26. canterburyange 26/08/2019 at 1:04 pm

    Thank you for letting my children trial these yummy healthy treats. We received Pizza flavour which my kids were rapt with. Even I was lucky enough to pinch a few to try before they all got eaten! Handy lunch box size, perfect for convenience and the taste is really good. Both my children really loved the texture and flavour. They taste healthy too – with having been Baked not fried, I feel happy giving them to my children to eat. I would recommend these for a snack or for in the lunch box for school. Delicious!

  27. Pommiegotlost 26/08/2019 at 9:55 am

    Thank you for the opportunity to try these, I put one in each daughters lunchbox and then asked for feedback later that day.
    The two youngest ate it all and asked for more, the 8yo said she gave them a 0 and that they were disgusting, the oldest had them stolen out of her lunchbox by another kid at school.
    I tasted them and was inclined to agree with my 8yo but then my 8yo refused to give the rest of her bag to one of her sisters and proceeded to eat them all, so I guess they weren’t so bad after all.
    I personally wouldn’t choose to eat them again I did not like the flavour or the texture, but I will probably buy them occasionally for the kids.

  28. Lesley Black 25/08/2019 at 9:30 pm

    We trialled the Healtheries Oven Baked Twirls pizza flavour (we also purchased the chicken flavour to try) my two boys love both (2 & 4 years old) They are great for preschool lunch box and as a snack that is healthier option than chips. I will be purchasing both flavours again and recommend for toddlers through to adults.
    Thank you for letting us review these tasty snacks

  29. angieb 25/08/2019 at 8:44 pm

    Thanks so much for the chance to try these.
    We received the pizza flavour. Was awesome to try something new for my wee dude who is allergic to dairy. Of my two kids, my 3yr old Miss didn’t like them and my 5yr old mr thought they were ok.
    Taste wise they are very mild – not huge amount of flavor, just subtle. Packaging is simple but can be challenging for little ones to open.
    They are super convenient wee bags though – great to take anywhere.
    My children have had other products they definately prefer over these. I would be keen to try the chicken flavour though as do wonder if it’s just a flavour preference.
    I would suggest these to other people but do feel they wouldn’t be a go-to snack for us.
    Thanks so much again for the chance to try! Love having new options that work with our dietary needs.

    Thanks Kidspot for the opportunity to review Heatheries Oven Baked Pizza Twirls. These were perfect additions to my 4 and 7 year old’s lunch boxes. My 7 year old really liked the pizza flavour, and my 4 year old (who actually doesn’t even like pizza!) found the taste ok too. They both liked the twirly shapes, and purple monster packaging. The packs were a good serving size, comparable to other similar snacks, but definitely quite a bit healthier in my opinion! I loved that they were not fried, therefore lower in fat, plus no artificial flavours or preservatives either. While I’m not such a massive fan of the plastic packaging, I would still buy these occasionally for a lunchbox treat, and would recommend them to other parents. Thanks Healtheries for another improved kids snack option!
