Loved this haul, it gave me so many more ideas for my childrens lunches. I completely get where you are coming from with fussy eaters, my eldest is also autistic and there is so much food he will not try and food he will be fine with previously and then just refuse point blank to eat, it can be a little tricky sometimes.
Hi Rhi. I'm coming to live at your house I could eat all your packed lunch ideas. Those little hovis bread biscuits are beautiful even with a little soft cheese on x
Love your idea for lunch boxes it’s so helpful keep them coming. Also my kids really enjoy cut up pitta with dips,yoghurt raisins and cold pasta I also have a SEN child so totally love your support on fussy texture eaters. Oh one last thing my boys love normal pretzels or pretzel sticks in there pack lunches when I add sausage roll for a change. Just different ideas for you.
I cut up a week's worth of apples then put them in a big airtight container with about 1/4-1/2 cup of water and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. I shake the big container everytime I get some out. We've never had an issue with them turning brown.
@@MummyofFourUK yes it does some. I noticed our likes apple juice flavor better so I am going to see if he will eat fresh sliced apples in apple juice. He loves applesauce from the store not mine I make.
In regards to what you were saying about putting one new thing on their plates and getting them to try it, how do you get them to try in the first place? My two year old eats anything, but my oldest is five and currently going through the ASD diagnosis process, she has a real issue with food texture, anything that ‘pops’ and things that are crunchy or seedy she doesn’t like and it’s a battle to even get her to put it in her mouth 😔 i’ve literally tried every fruit/salad item and the only thing she will eat are bananas. Any advice I’d be really grateful for because you seem to do it so well 😩
They are mini malted milk type biscuits... (sweet) I have only just discovered your channel 🙈 really liked your packed lunch ideas x I too have a child who has nf1 and he is very funny with food and will only eat certain things so can't just put anything in his lunchbox x
Hi, I really like your grocery hauls and I've been watching them for a while. I was just curious because I never see you buy eggs, do you ever have eggs for breakfast?
Mummy of Four UK I wash the apples in water then sprinkle over some lemon juice & toss them in it, I’ve never had a brown apple they always remain the same as just cut X
I've personally never tried it but a lot of people swear by soaking the apples in lemon water for 5-10 minutes, apparently it has little to no effect on the taste 🤷♀️
HI rhi..good selection of the shop don't judge me section is ok to have for me pino grigio is lovely with ice on a Friday night..thanks for sharing this xx👍🌞
Is there any chance of a lunchbox video of what you’ve done for lunchboxes each day (just realising that sounds like a lot of work)? We are lucky enough to hot meals at my sons school but there is usually a day or two a week that he doesn’t like what’s on the menu so he has a packed lunch instead. Is it just me or is there massive pressure on lunchboxes 😥
Mummy of Four UK that would be amazing 😉 there are so many school lunch box videos where they put things in there is no way my son would eat (or any kid I’ve ever met!). I feel like your family eats like normal people lol
How do the schools your kids go to deal with food allergies? Some American schools won't let students bring lunches anymore to avoid allergic reactions. Using the actual apple juice to keep the apple slices from going brown was a good idea. I've never seen anyone use anything but lemon juice for that. The nice thing about lettuce with young kids is that it has virtually no taste to object to and kids almost universally like crunchy things. Don't worry about losing the plot. You have 4 children, even if one is almost a grown up, so you're allowed to have a bit of a mind slip once in a while. Sometimes when you buy off brand cream cheese, some people can notice a taste difference. The name brand, in my experience, has a more sharp taste than others. The off brands tend to be milder, I think and kids might like that better, maybe. I have never seen salmon spread before. I'll have to look that up. I grew up only eating wheat bread, unless it was a sandwich once in a while, or it was garlic bread. I only had a problem with it when it was the bread that has the seeds still in it or the crust had the seeds and hard bits on it. You get such interesting crackers in the UK. I will look for that also. I get hungry watching your videos. :) What would the school do if a parent doesn't send an extremely healthy lunch box? I don't think the US has color coded nutrition information on packages like that. What does it mean on the packet when it says "Nice biscuits"? I just love your food haul videos!
So glad you enjoy my hauls! We are told by the schools to provide a "healthy lunch" but I have no idea what they would do if I didn't 😂 Allergy wise, we are not supposed to send nuts, but anything else is fine in our school x
Apparently water with lemon juice and then put the Apple in it. Doesn’t really does if lemon after. Could be an idea. My boyfriend likes those sandwich pastes as well. I can’t stand them. They don’t look right.
No it just stop them turning brown I wash them before I eat it so dish with water drop of lemon juice put apple in finish rest lunch box u can give wash before putting in or just dry and put it lunch box

You could mix the sliced apples with the orange wedges in one container just rub the apple slices with the juice of a part of the orange.
Loving your videos, I have a 5yr old daughter so all the mummy hacks and organisation videos are amazing!😍 hope your children are feeling better now x
With the unicorn biscuits I used to eat the top then the bottoms
New subscriber! Not a mum, but I'm obsessed with your videos! Plus I loveeee your accent 😂
That is so great to hear! So glad you are enjoying my channel x

What's one more mouth to feed, the more the merrier 😂
Thanks Rhi see you tomorrow 😂 xx
I’m sure your lunchbox ideas will be great, I think it’s a great addition to the grocery haul!
Love watching your videos. I have picked up some great meal ideas.
Glad you like them!
I love your videos!! I’m watching religiously now 🙈😂
Love your don’t judge me section lol x

Great idea!!
I used to do the exact same thing with my iced gems! Get rid of the biscuit and save the icing for last because it was the best bit! X
The only way 😂

That's good to know! I'd rather batch prep x
I’ve only recently started shopping properly at Tesco and I really like it actually. Your lunch boxes look they’re gonna be so organised 😍😍 lol xx
My son loves the Apple Soreen and takes one with his packed lunch.
My youngest son liked them too x
Mine like the original or banana ones
Thx! My lunch did go much better than usual 😂
I'm so glad!
Lemon or lime juice is also another way to help with browning apples . I learned something knew about apples in apple juice. Thank you. Wonderful.
I figured that it may change the taste less🤷🏻♀️
@@MummyofFourUK yes it does some. I noticed our likes apple juice flavor better so I am going to see if he will eat fresh sliced apples in apple juice. He loves applesauce from the store not mine I make.
Would love to see an idea of the different lunch boxes you prepare through the week ☺️ I worry I get to 'samey' with my two childrens lunches 🙈
The philadphila is strong a taste and I love tesco soft cheese, I love your videos
Thank you 🥰
Where did you get your little ones snack boxes from when fheyre in the garden?
The Moon and star biscuits are malted milks just in moon and star shapes 💫
My lot like malted milks x

I buy them every now and again but we don't have them at breakfast
I've heard soaking apple segments in lemon juice prevents them from browning. Never tried it though.
I can't stand iced gems. Never have, never will 😂
yes lemon juice works :)
Oh gosh, the iced gems. I was quite naughty with those! I would eat the icing off the top of them all and then say ' I've had enough now' lol. X
Ps like the message idea I think that’s cute lol xx
Rinse the apple slices in water with lemon juice to avoid browning.
Soak them completely?
Mummy of Four UK I wash the apples in water then sprinkle over some lemon juice & toss them in it, I’ve never had a brown apple they always remain the same as just cut X
Squirty lemon 🍋 on the apples 🍎 i chop the night before and they don't do brown
😘
I'll have to try it x
I've personally never tried it but a lot of people swear by soaking the apples in lemon water for 5-10 minutes, apparently it has little to no effect on the taste 🤷♀️

I filmed a "what we eat in a day" today which includes lunch boxes if that helps xx
Mummy of Four UK that would be amazing 😉 there are so many school lunch box videos where they put things in there is no way my son would eat (or any kid I’ve ever met!). I feel like your family eats like normal people lol
Fab video Rhi xx
Thanks lovely x

I find that cheaper/own brand soft cheese goes off quicker that Philadelphia.
Cause there's less preservatives in own brands.
Also why did you stop buying diet coke?
I tend to drink Burst drinks now - mummyoffour.com/health-and-fitness/exante-burst-review/
Apparently water with lemon juice and then put the Apple in it. Doesn’t really does if lemon after. Could be an idea. My boyfriend likes those sandwich pastes as well. I can’t stand them. They don’t look right.
Hi, Not much of a difference with the soft cheese, I think 🤔
I think you might be right x
Mmm I’m hungry now
Try soaking apple in lemon juice. It's supposed to stop them going brown
Need to try this x
Please come you do a parke lunch vedo
