Thom found these new snack sticks called Sticks & Twigs. Thom likes his snacks. It used to be mainly potato chips, now it's usually pretzels. But he will mix in some strange snack he finds at the grocery store. Usually something spicy. The Sticks and Twigs are Chipotle Tomato flavored. They are organic and consist of a plethora of whole grains from rice to sesame seeds to flax. Yet they are surprisingly tasty.
Since Aaron likes to eat whatever Thom is eating (even if it is too sour), he climbed up next to Thom on the couch to share his twigs. I had given him some for a snack earlier in the day when he rejected his graham cracker. After one bite, he said "too hot", but continued to eat. They really aren't that hot, but they do have a little spice. Of all the things he could be ruining his appetite for dinner on, there are worse things. These even have a little protein and fiber, along with some iron and the flax should provide some Omega 3s.
I can't help but wonder though if the chia seeds it lists as an ingredient are the same thing they use on Chia Pets. Is there a Chia Pet out there going bald because of these twigs?
