Story Title: Healthy Kids Snacks
Episode: Four
Date: October 25th 2009
Presenter: Neville Passmore

A common concern among parents is the quality of food that our kids snack on during the day. Most of the highly tempting food that presents itself is high in sugar, salt or saturated fat. Neville takes a look at some healthy snacks full of flavour so your kids won’t be complaining.

Mundella Greek Honey & Greek Vanilla Yoghurt

• National Award Winning – Voted Australia’s Best Yoghurt in the AGDA 2006 (Australian Grand Dairy Awards)
• High Probiotic Intensity – Mundella yoghurt’s have been shown to have up to 8000 times more probiotic intensity than some other brands.
• “Additives” to food like; preservatives, colours, gums, stabilisers & food acids (there are many more) - are identified by numbers/codes. No Numbers No Nasties simply means Mundella yoghurt contains No Preservatives/No Colours/No Gelatines...No Unnecessary Additives to give a false or misleading appeal to the product.

Neville’s tips for getting the kids to eat healthy foods!

• The trick is to cut up a wide range of fruit into bite sized pieces and have this constantly on hand on a plate in the fridge. The fact that it ready to eat makes it a great hit with all kids. And to add to the nutrition as well as the palatability of the fruit some natural Mundella Greek vanilla yoghurt seems to work a bit of magic.
• Another hit with the kids is fruit kebabs, a skewer loaded up with a seasonal selection. Once again it’s ready to eat and a spot  Mundella Greek Honey yoghurt is a healthy alternative to ice-cream.
• Kids love pancakes – try serving them with a few slices of banana and a slurp of this creamy Mundella Greek honey yoghurt. It’s beautifully smooth and gives a light sweetness to the pancakes which helps to make them irresistible for the kids.
