Due to the limited food choices our child will take, we need to ensure our child gets proper nutrition. This product was recommended by her therapists and has been a lifesaver. You can mix it into different food. We mix it into a peanut butter dip th...
Multivitamins
For a child that has dairy allergies and is a picky eater, biscoff cookies are a life saver for us. Its also good to dip these into different vitamin mixes from the other products on this list. My child will only eat these so I just have these bulk o...

WILDE Himalayan Pink Salt Protein Chips, 8 Pack
This snack is the closest thing to a fruit that I've been able to get my child to eat. Im hoping this will help with eventually eating a real apple one day.
Brothers Freeze Dried Fuji Apple Crisps, 12 Pack
My child won’t touch vegetables — not even a single bite — so getting real nutrients in has always been a daily struggle. This powder has been one of the few things that actually works in our routine. I sprinkle a little on ground meat or bacon. It b...
ENOF Organic Fruit & Veggie Powder Kids & Adults
This cup has honestly been a lifesaver for us. My child doesn't drink enough water and hydrated was a constant worry. Our occupational therapist recommended trying this product and it completely changed things — it’s now the only cup she’ll reliably ...
Honey Bear Straw Cup, Therapy Drink Set (3)
This is the German version of Maggi seasoning, and it’s a little different from the other versions. It doesn’t contain milk and the flavor is milder and less sharp. For us, that difference mattered a lot.

Maggi Liquid Seasoning, 4.40 Ounce
Out of all the cereals we’ve tried, this specific version of Cheerios is the only one my child will consistently eat. Other flavors, brands, or even similar shapes were an immediate no.
Cheerios Oat Crunch Oats 'N Honey Cereal 24oz
Try this bacon brand if you havent yet. It crisps up well in an air fryer. 375 for 10mins. Your air fryer might be different but cook it until it will be crispy but not burned. This should be available at most grocery stores. We've tried different br...
Applegate Naturals Hickory Smoked Uncured Bacon 12oz
Give this hotdog brand a try if you havent already. Air fry 2 hotdogs at 400 for 5 minutes and cut it into bite size pieces. This is the only way my child will eat hotdogs. This should be available in most grocery stores.
Nathans 8 Skinless Beef Franks, 12oz
We mix a little bit of pedialite with our child's water. Just enough so you dont taste it. We do this to help with her immune system and also hydration. Whenever our child is sick this method helps out alot with her recovery.
Pedialyte Electrolyte Drink Unflavored 1L x8
We’ve tried a few air fryers, but this one actually fries evenly instead of leaving half the food soft and half overcooked. The texture is the biggest win, my child needs food to be the right texture and this gets it right every time.
What we use it...
Gourmia 7 QT Air Fryer w/ Panoramic Window & 12 Presets
We were looking for air fryer fries that actually come out with the right texture

Very close to that McDonald’s French fry texture that my child absolutely loves
They’re dairy-free (huge for us — we thought McDonald...

Lundberg Thin Brown Rice Cakes Variety 3-Pack
These are a good dairy free snack to try that has a good texture and taste also. Be sure to select this specific flavor since the other ones have dairy. I prefer buying this one in smaller packs to keep each pack from getting stale after opening.
