Nice crunch, good ingredients, mild flavor
I really like the plain original Awsum quinoa puffs, so I excited to try these flavored ones even if I am a full grown adult. It's nice to find wholesome snacks with natural ingredients, using fruits and veggies instead of artificial food coloring and bad sugars. And extra points from me for the variety pack, I like to switch things frequently and would rarely commit on a big pack of a single flavor.I'll continue to buy the original plain ones, but these are not a regret purchase.All three flavors are quite similar, the main taste being the earthy quinoa. The fruit/veggie juices add a little bit of sweetness. For my taste buds they are delicious, but I somehow doubt most picky young eaters will enjoy them.The puffs are crunchy, but melt easy in mouth. They are smaller in size than the original ones, flatter (not O cereal like), which I guess is better for tiny baby hands.I mainly use them as snack, as I like how I can munch a long time on the small pieces. I guess that Banana and Pitaya ones could make good cereal, but I personally can't see them as such.Individual flavor review:Organic Superfood Quinoa Puffs Banana & Pitaya - The taste is mainly banana, with a slight fruity vibe; the sweetest of the assortment and most likely to please picky eaters.Organic Superfood Quinoa Puffs Carrot & Sweet Potato - The earthy taste of quinoa combines perfectly (in my opinion) with the earthy taste of the roots; but I couldn't tell which root they tasted like... might have been carrot or sweet potato... might have been even regular potato or even parsnip... there's nothing specific.antioxidant beta caroteneOrganic Superfood Quinoa Puffs With Beet Powder - Without the slight beet specific mild flavor, I couldn't even differentiate them from the Carrot and Sweet Potato ones.

FPIES baby loves these
My son has the gastrointestinal condition FPIES. We needed some limited ingredient snacks that he could eat. These worked great. At 13 months old he was able to eat them.

Tastes terrible
I like quinoa and love sweet potatoes, so I thought I'd try them. I like to nosh. OK, I'm 70. But these tiny crackers taste like cardboard. Not even a hint of sweet potato.Not returnable so I guess I'll send them to the food bank.

healthy puffed quinoa for anyone, added flavors tone down quinoa taste, great snack
I really like puffed quinoa. I use different shapes and sizes for a variety of snacking and food topping needs (yogurt, ice cream, salads, oat meal, or even as a cereal). Helps me get my nosh on without adding in sugar or too many calories. Each piece of this style is a good size for little and large fingers a like.This variety pack tastes within the realm of what I am used to, but slightly more bland. Reminds me more of a cheerio than quinoa. That being said, you will need to like quinoa to like puffed quinoa. That simple. Quinoa has a slightly nutty, slightly bitter taste (in a good way) and having it in dried form doesn't change that. It tastes like quinoa but in dry puffed form. I happen to like it a lot. That taste is toned down significantly with the addition of whatever flavor you ordered (I have the variety pack). I dont necessarily taste the added flavor (dragon fruit, sweet potato, or beet); really just a slightly sweet taste and a more bland quinoa taste (compared to plain puffed quinoa). Likely good for those demanding a more bland palate. It's good. I would rather that the nutritional info be just for one bag, or just two servings. This info is listed as having 4 servings per bag. Not bad, just more inconvenient. I normally dont eat/use more than 1/2-1 cup at a time anyway. It's one of those food products where a little goes a long way (good since I have a huge non stop appetite).So yeh, overall likely best suited for kids, but is also perfectly fine for adults. I haven't decided if it is a repurchase or not. I do like the flavors, and I like the smaller bags. I also like that they offer a variety pack in a set of 3 (or 12) so one can try out a smaller portion before deciding. Nice touch.Here are some of the puffed quinoa that I like: small balls of B07WGJF8LW Plain Puffed Quinoa , or large balls of B07V2PFMBQ Yacon Sweetened Quinoa Puffs , or this one by also by Awsum snacks that is similar in size and texture to the puffed quinoa I'm reviewing, B0926V5SC9 Puffed Quinoa with Chia

Great Ingredients For Kids, Adults and Even Dogs
These are very normal quinoa puff snacks. They have fantastic ingredients and are crunchy. They come in a pack of three and each bag is four servings. I do wish each bag was one serving for simplicity when traveling or when on the go, but it is what it is right?My husband thinks all these puff snacks taste a smidge stale and he is not wrong, but they ALL taste that way. I like keeping these around in our car because they keep for a long time and we can have them as a moderately low carb snack and our dogs can have them too.The macros are about 4 grams net carbs per serving with no added sugars. They have 30 calories per serving. Even if my husband were to eat half a bag that is still only 60 calories. Not a big deal. Our dogs absolutely love them.At just $5 for three bags with 4 servings each that is still a pretty good price.

Not Cheap
The media could not be loaded. If you compare these with the little cereal bites for toddlers in the grocery store .. https://www.amazon.com/Gerber-Graduates-Blueberry-Cinnamon-Strawberry/dp/B07CWWWBY8/ these are similar.But this is a sample pack of the three offered flavors.You get 3 bags, one ounce each, at $1.67 per bag ... the bag claims there are 4 servings in each bag. Of course these are made for a toddler.Great food for learning the "pick it up and put it in your mouth" skills that all babies need to master.The choices are seemingly odder flavors ... like beet. But there is also banana and dragon fruit which ought to be well received. There is also carrot and sweet potatoReally cute design with a giraffe.
