Head Back to School with @piratesbooty!

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

Well, children are back to school again and one thing that is hitting me hard is having to pack a lunch every day for my son. It can be really hard to find the time and energy to pack a healthy and nutritious lunch for my son that will keep him energized throughout the day. I will not include any junk, artificial ingredients or sugary foods in his lunch so it isn't always easy to find foods that I trust that are good for packing in a lunch box.

But my definite go-to snack for my son (and one he LOVES!) is Pirate's Booty and they have a great limited-edition back-to-school packaging that makes it even more fun for my son to pack in his lunch box!

Pirates like their cheddar like they do their rum, aged to perfection. Aged White Cheddar is made from puffed rice and corn, blended with real aged white cheddar cheese and baked perfectly to pirate standards.

I love the 1 oz bags because they are the perfect size for his lunch box and they are big enough to fill him up at snack time and carry him over to lunch time. Plus, I trust them so much and their ingredients! They are also gluten-free, vegan and made without any artificial ingredients or preservatives! They are cheesy and delicious and my son (and I won't lie...I sneak a bag once in awhile too!) loves them!!

Make packing a lunch easier this school year when you have your cupboards stocked with Pirate's Booty!

Healthy Summer Snacking & Celebrate Finding Dory in Theaters with @piratesbooty

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

I have raved many times before about how much my family (and I!) LOVE Pirate's Booty! It really is the perfect snack for healthy summer snacking this summer, especially with their individual 1/2 oz packages! It is great to throw in the beach bag, travel bag or eat on-the-go wherever and whatever you are doing this summer!

But your children will love Pirate's Booty even more this summer because each package features limited-edition Finding Dory packaging. From April to June, Dory, Nemo and their new friend—Hank the Octopus—will join Pirate and his first mate, Crunchy the Parrot, to bring adventurous snacking to kids of all ages. The limited-edition packaging comes in a variety of sizes, including seven ounces, 10 ounces and a 12-pack of half-ounce bags of Pirate’s Booty Aged White Cheddar.

I personally CAN'T WAIT to see Finding Dory! I loved Finding Nemo and this sequel looks just as good! Every time I grab a bag of Pirate's Booty with the cute Finding Dory characters, I get excited all over again for a family movie night watching Finding Dory!

So this summer snack healthy and join Pirate’s Booty as they celebrate Disney·Pixar's Finding Dory. Set sail for a new adventure in the deep blue sea with baked to perfection puffs made with real, simple ingredients.

Skip the Sugar this Valentine's Day - Give Pirate's Booty as a Healthier Treat!

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

Looking for something for your child to give to his or her classmates this Valentine's Day that isn't full of sugar, artificial colors or high fructose corn syrup? With grocery stores and pharmacies lining the shelves with seasonal, sugary sweets, consider giving Pirate's Booty as a better-for-you valentine this year.

This gluten-free snack can be enjoyed by all classmates and with it's ideal 1/2 oz. packaging, it's perfect for school deskside deliveries. Paired with a personal valentine, its a Valentine that the whole class will enjoy...without the sugar high.

Pirate’s Booty is the deliciously baked, never fried, puffed rice and corn snack made with aged white cheddar cheese. Real, tasty ingredients that are easy to pronounce (and even easier to enjoy!) make for a snack that’s a real treasure!

I definitely know my children beg for it every day in their lunch boxes and I like it just as much...if not more! I will be putting Pirate's Booty in their Valentine's Day gifts instead of sugary sweets for sure!

It makes a great snack for the whole family and friends too - we recently served it at our Super Bowl party and it was a hit!

Make the switch today! Stop sending sugar sweets to school for Valentine's Day and make it a pirate-y Valentine's Day this year!
