Little Turtle Rice Teethers, Banana Flavor, 12 wrapped 2 Pack, 4 Count

My granddaughter loves these. They are great for her, they don’t break apart in her hand or mouth while she sucks and teeth’s on them. Love all the flavors. I will be buying more for her

I saw these available for review and grabbed them even though there are no babies here. I figured that one of the best ways to test things designed for little celiacs was to give them to a big celiac. My partner was diagnosed with celiacs 49 years ago as a baby, and has been on a gluten free diet his whole life. These did not trigger any kind of a reaction in him. We have both been eating them as snacks throughout the day the past few days, and neither of us have had anything hinky happen. I am not celiac, but I have a very sensitive stomach, and am often actually more sensitive to foods than my partner is. They have a pleasant banana flavor, and are just like rice snacks that we get at the Asian food market down the street. They are a nice light snack that isn't very filling (for adults anyways).

If you've ever had shrimp chips, then you've had these... minus the shrimp and whatever ingredients that are in them. But seriously, they share the same consistency. Which is perfect for our toothless eight month old baby. The turn soft as soon as they are inside the mouth. It's very easy for the baby to bite off just the right amount to chew and swallow. These are a great size to hold and are wide enough that the whole thing doesn't go in one bite. They're wrapped as pairs so a few can go in the diaper bag. Some can go in the snack bag. Some can go in the car seat. Etc. Etc.. So, as with all new baby food, we test it first. The only thing that I'm not tasting is the banana flavor. It's there, but barely. That being said, we appreciate the ingredients since we're dealing with some food sensitivity. Overall, these are good. The baby likes them. They just are lacking flavor. Okay, my wife feels like that they taste a lot like banana. And that they even have more flavors than the other teethers that we have. So there you have it. :)

I'm going to review these based on how they are packaged, what they taste like, and the ingredients used. But I will say upfront, in case this is something you avoid- these are a "product of China". If you avoid that, then these won't cut it.. If it isn't a concern, then know that these are labeled as "free from Gluten and GMO". Also, no milk, nuts, eggs, no artificial ingredients or preservatives. Made with premium "Japonic rice flour". Also, 100% BPA-free packaging, produced in a peanut free facility, and carries the trademark of the national foundation for celiac awareness. There are 4 boxes of 12 wrapped Rice teethers contained in a sealed bag. This is nice, as it makes it easier to take it on the go and to keep it fresh. Each packet contains 2 elongated rice snacks. A serving is 4 rusks (or biscuits), which is actually 2 full packages, making it 6 servings per box. The shape reminds me of a surf board. They are a light, flat yet puffed mild tasting rice biscuit with a hint of banana flavor. If you ate the whole serving (2 packages of 2), it is just 30 calories with 20 mg of sodium and not much of anything else. The ingredients are: rice flour, potato starch, sugar (<1g per serving), banana powder, sea salt, natural banana flavor. Sometimes I have grabbed a similar product off the store shelves for my consumption, especially when I have been dieting and just want something to nosh on. I elected to try these for the same purpose. I thought maybe I would share with my two labs, but I aim to avoid any products made in China with them. Me, that is a different story. So while they won't last me long once I start eating one, I imagine it would take a while for a teething kiddo to work through the rice snack. They have some give, while also maintaining firmness. I included pics- I had already started eating one when I thought to take pictures.

My son loves these, but I got 4 boxes and they all expired at the end of August. He only made it through one box and the rest had to be thrown away. Super bummed.

When I received these Little Turtle rice teethers, I opened one of the boxes and there are individual sealed packages of 2 teether cookies inside each pack. Great for travel and keeping them fresh. I opened one pack of 2, which was easy to open, and ate one to see how it tasted so I would know before giving the other one to my grandson. These have a very mild banana flavor and is not sweet, which I really liked. The teether is a very light wafer type cookie, a long oval in shape which is just perfect for little hands to hold. When bitten, it breaks off easily and immediately starts to desolve in the moisture in your mouth. Perfect for baby or young toddlers on the go. I am impress with the lack of allergens.. there is no milk, peanuts, wheat, tree nuts, soy, shellfish, fish, sesame, eggs, artificial ingredients or preservatives in the making of these baby cookies. Also free from gluten and GMO. Perfect! My grandson loves them!

These little teethers not only are attractive to little hands but also very useful and tasty. They are just right for little ones to hold and chew on. The rice base quickly turns to mush and helps avoid any choking, perfect for continuous munching and relieve for those gums. The flavor is very subtle and not overpowering. I have noticed that the packaging doesn’t point out an age as to when to try these, but I wouldn’t offer it until your baby is good at swallowing, usually around 8+ months of age.

These teethers were tasty for our baby. The baby enjoyed teething on it and gobbled up the snack in no time. The rice snack mostly dissolved after seconds of being chewed on. You definitely have to supervise closely because pieces can break off into their mouth. I like how there are two in each package. The only thing I don’t like is how they easily mash up into crumbs when placed in my diaper bag.
