WEBVTT - TNC Review: Kids Yoghurt Pouches

0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.040
<v Speaker 1>When it comes to our kids' health, we're always looking

0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:05.880
<v Speaker 1>for the best options that's not only healthy, but also

0:00:06.000 --> 0:00:08.560
<v Speaker 1>cost effective and has to taste good so the kids

0:00:08.600 --> 0:00:12.080
<v Speaker 1>will actually eat it. So today on the Nutrition Couch

0:00:12.119 --> 0:00:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Product Review, we are taking a closer look to popular

0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:19.400
<v Speaker 1>kids yogurt tubes and ones that you may have gotten

0:00:19.440 --> 0:00:22.880
<v Speaker 1>a little bit sucked into from a health halo perspective. Hi,

0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:25.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm Susie Burrow and Eileen Wood, and as two of

0:00:25.320 --> 0:00:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Australia's leading dieticians who specialize in evidence based nutrition, we

0:00:29.400 --> 0:00:32.800
<v Speaker 1>bring you the Nutrition Couch Product Review, a weekly chat

0:00:32.840 --> 0:00:35.240
<v Speaker 1>on new products and old favorites that you can find

0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:38.159
<v Speaker 1>in the supermarket. So leanne I have wanted to do

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:40.880
<v Speaker 1>yogurts for a little while. We know that our listeners

0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:43.559
<v Speaker 1>are very very interested in yogat in general. Whenever we

0:00:43.640 --> 0:00:47.000
<v Speaker 1>include any kind of content on yogurts and then there's

0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:50.080
<v Speaker 1>a whole range of kids yogurts too, we get a

0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:52.479
<v Speaker 1>really positive response, so we know it's neary people are

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:56.000
<v Speaker 1>interested in. And so I straight away was able to

0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:57.720
<v Speaker 1>tell you the products I wanted to look at because

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:01.680
<v Speaker 1>my little boys do like yogurt. I've got one who

0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 1>prefers it more than the other one. But they've had

0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:05.640
<v Speaker 1>yogurt from when they're quite small, and actually, this is

0:01:05.680 --> 0:01:08.200
<v Speaker 1>a little tip for you with me, when my babies

0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:10.880
<v Speaker 1>were really sort of little, so nine months twelve months,

0:01:10.920 --> 0:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>when you first start to introduce foods like yogurt, I

0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:18.119
<v Speaker 1>used the Baramba Baby yogurt because it was quite low

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.880
<v Speaker 1>in protein and had literally nothing in it but milk.

0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:24.119
<v Speaker 1>I really like that brand. Now it's tricky to find,

0:01:24.280 --> 0:01:26.119
<v Speaker 1>and I think I ended up getting it from Harris

0:01:26.160 --> 0:01:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Farm often at the time, but I would only use

0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.320
<v Speaker 1>that or a very natural yogat. It's only been since

0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:33.759
<v Speaker 1>they're a lot older, like I'm talking four and five,

0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.840
<v Speaker 1>that I've even introduced flavored yogurt. I think it's really

0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:39.959
<v Speaker 1>important that we say that the less sweet food that

0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:42.680
<v Speaker 1>you introduce into the diets of small children, the better.

0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:45.480
<v Speaker 1>I would say that pouch yogurt, I wouldn't be giving

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:48.240
<v Speaker 1>it to kids younger than I reckon at least two,

0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:51.080
<v Speaker 1>maybe a bit older. And you certainly, as we'll discuss

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:53.160
<v Speaker 1>in a second, of looking for brands that don't contain

0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>any added sugar whatsoever. But absolutely i'd be seeking out

0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:59.000
<v Speaker 1>just plain natural yogurts and mixing them with a little

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:01.440
<v Speaker 1>bit of fruit, so the kids get used to that

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 1>more tart flavor and are not constantly looking for sweet food.

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:07.600
<v Speaker 1>So that's a little trick. I think that when we

0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 1>say kids, we're really talking more about primary school age kids.

0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, products that you might add into the lunch

0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:16.440
<v Speaker 1>box at school, and specifically in terms of the one

0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.440
<v Speaker 1>we're going to talk about first, which is the Valleier

0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Kids probiotic yogurt pouch, a very popular one, but it's

0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:25.360
<v Speaker 1>also leanne, a really big one, so it's one hundred

0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:28.320
<v Speaker 1>and forty grams, which is massive, you know, for particularly

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 1>for a small child. So if you were giving this

0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>to your two year old, this is way too many

0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:36.560
<v Speaker 1>calories and specifically sugar we're going to talk about in

0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:39.720
<v Speaker 1>a second. So as I said, my recommendation is stick

0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.520
<v Speaker 1>to the very small portions and if you do use

0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 1>pouch yogurt and no added sugar, pouch yogurt for little kids,

0:02:45.720 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 1>you absolutely want the smallest one's possible. But this is

0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 1>marketed for kids. You can see a massive kids right

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:54.120
<v Speaker 1>across the front at retails for about a dollar twenty

0:02:54.240 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 1>per pouch at Woollies and coal's it's fairly available. We

0:02:57.600 --> 0:03:00.400
<v Speaker 1>check it the ingredient list. Whole milks give milk, orter sugar,

0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 1>milk solid, strawberry pulp. So straight away, leanne, I'm looking

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 1>at that. I see sugar on the list, and I

0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:09.800
<v Speaker 1>don't like it because we shouldn't have added sugar in yogurt,

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I think in general lit alone kids yogurt, So straight

0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:15.560
<v Speaker 1>away I'm put off strawberry and at three point five percent.

0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>There's also rice starch, which, let's be honest, is another

0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:22.200
<v Speaker 1>form of sugar gelatin natural flavors. Regulators live yogurt cultures,

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:24.240
<v Speaker 1>so there is some good bugs in there that they're

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:27.520
<v Speaker 1>adding in. But it comes in at five hundred kilogel,

0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.360
<v Speaker 1>so just over one hundred and thirty calories per serve,

0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>six grams of protein, three grams of fat, and total

0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 1>two point four saturated, So low and saturated fat, but massive.

0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:40.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, sixteen point five grams of carb, twelve point

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:43.640
<v Speaker 1>five grams of which are sugars. Now, admittedly you will

0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 1>get some naturally occurring sugar in any dairy food, milk, yogurt,

0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:49.720
<v Speaker 1>but in this case it's added sugar, some of it.

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:53.240
<v Speaker 1>At least it's not differentiated added from naturally occurring and

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I just can't justify that, particularly if a small child

0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:57.680
<v Speaker 1>was having this. This is more than half their daily

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 1>sugar intake in a single pouch. Now I am aware

0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 1>it is some of it natural, but it just is

0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.600
<v Speaker 1>an added sugar food that shouldn't be in kids' diets

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.600
<v Speaker 1>and for me, the portion is just way, way too large.

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.800
<v Speaker 1>The good news is, thoughlyand that there are a growing

0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:15.040
<v Speaker 1>range of smaller portions and in particular ones that clearly

0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:18.520
<v Speaker 1>say no added sugar. And this is a perfect example

0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 1>why we need that labeling in Australia that differentiates added

0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:24.839
<v Speaker 1>to naturally occurring sugars in foods like fruit and dairy,

0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:27.919
<v Speaker 1>so we can make that informed decision. But as a mum,

0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:30.000
<v Speaker 1>if you're going along and looking at any of these

0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:32.279
<v Speaker 1>pouches and see sugar written, it's a sign it's not

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:35.080
<v Speaker 1>the best product for your child, and there are a

0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:37.640
<v Speaker 1>better nutritional options out there in the case of.

0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:40.880
<v Speaker 2>Yogurt, absolutely, And if you're busy in your time poor

0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 2>just even look at the front of package marketing and

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:45.239
<v Speaker 2>look for the ones that say no added sugar. Because

0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 2>this brand the Valley, it says proba to yogurt, it

0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 2>says kids, it says boost immunity. So it looks like

0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 2>it's got all of the right things on the front

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:54.360
<v Speaker 2>of packet. But the big thing it doesn't have, SUSI,

0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:56.440
<v Speaker 2>is a no added sugar label. And we know that

0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:58.480
<v Speaker 2>no added sugar doesn't mean no sugar. We know it

0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:01.080
<v Speaker 2>silk and tastes naturally occurring sugar. But as you said,

0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:03.160
<v Speaker 2>we don't want like twelve and a half grams of

0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:05.719
<v Speaker 2>sugar is huge for a small child. And as you said,

0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:07.680
<v Speaker 2>the more sugar they have, the more sugar they want.

0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:09.320
<v Speaker 2>So it is definitely not something that we want add

0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:11.960
<v Speaker 2>kids eating. So I think this one is a big

0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 2>health halo. I think you look at the front of

0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:16.159
<v Speaker 2>that package marketing and go, you know what that's actually like.

0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:18.760
<v Speaker 2>It looks like a really good product, and it retails

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 2>for a dollar twenty at Woolworth Susie, and as she said,

0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:22.720
<v Speaker 2>it's a big pouch. It's one hundred and forty gram

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 2>so a lot of people might think this is actually

0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:27.279
<v Speaker 2>really good value for money, but you're getting more because

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:29.320
<v Speaker 2>they have, you know, bogged out that yogurt with the

0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:31.560
<v Speaker 2>added sugars and that sort of thing. So I don't

0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:34.160
<v Speaker 2>think that this is necessarily something that we would We're

0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:36.000
<v Speaker 2>not gonna recommend it at all, LAWI SUSI. There are

0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:38.279
<v Speaker 2>definitely better options on the market, But I really do

0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:40.320
<v Speaker 2>think the kids yogurt's overall are a bit of a

0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:43.160
<v Speaker 2>marketing thing anyway, Like why can't kids just eat, as

0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:45.039
<v Speaker 2>you said, adult yogat, Like why does it even have

0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:46.640
<v Speaker 2>to be a kid range of yogurts.

0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.279
<v Speaker 1>I haven't bought pouches until my kids went to school

0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:53.000
<v Speaker 1>for that reason. You know, if they wanted yoga at home,

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 1>I would give them a bowl with cut out fruit

0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:56.400
<v Speaker 1>in it and use just a natural. But also from

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:58.320
<v Speaker 1>a cost perspective, you know, you can get a big

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:01.840
<v Speaker 1>container of yogat, so a natural yogurt for I think

0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.719
<v Speaker 1>about four dollars, and that's probably got at least ten

0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:08.520
<v Speaker 1>serves for a small child versus this that's retailing at

0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 1>one twenty per serve, Like, you can waste a lot

0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:12.520
<v Speaker 1>of money as well, if budget, if you're trying to

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:15.080
<v Speaker 1>focus on your budget, And for me, the portions are

0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:18.080
<v Speaker 1>way way too large for I wouldn't give that size

0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.440
<v Speaker 1>until a child was probably eight, probably even closer to

0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:23.960
<v Speaker 1>ten years old. So the fact that that size and

0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:27.320
<v Speaker 1>portions being marketed directly to kids, I think is an

0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:30.960
<v Speaker 1>issue in itself, and we'd like to definitely see people

0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:32.960
<v Speaker 1>do better with that kind of product than where it's

0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:35.240
<v Speaker 1>sitting in the market at the moment. So we'll move

0:06:35.279 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 1>on to one that i think is one of the

0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:40.680
<v Speaker 1>better ones. So I've chosen the Tama Valley Dairy Kids

0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Greek Yogurt pouch. I've got a strawberry one one hundred

0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:45.880
<v Speaker 1>and ten grams, so much more reasonable portion, and I

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:48.360
<v Speaker 1>think Leanne for the babies, you get them at about

0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:51.200
<v Speaker 1>seventy grams, so this would be something that's more reasonable

0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:54.200
<v Speaker 1>for a primary school aged child. The seventy ones would

0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 1>be I think the rapid Iss Guarden one is about

0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:59.239
<v Speaker 1>seventy grams, which is much more appropriate for smaller kids

0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:02.640
<v Speaker 1>or kids too are yet at school, but not inexpensively.

0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:05.039
<v Speaker 1>And one dollar fifty per pouch, you know, like that

0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:07.039
<v Speaker 1>adds up if you're buying just joke it for the

0:07:07.080 --> 0:07:09.600
<v Speaker 1>course of the week, so certainly not you know, from

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:13.000
<v Speaker 1>a budget perspective, it's not necessarily cost effective for families.

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:16.440
<v Speaker 1>We look at the labels, it's a whole milk brand

0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 1>actually it's not low fat. It's whole milk, creamy milk solids, water,

0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:23.160
<v Speaker 1>strawberry pulp, four point two percent rice starch. Now I

0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:27.920
<v Speaker 1>will disclose that does also contain some sweetened aspect to it.

0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:30.320
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't have the added sugar itself, but it is

0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:34.120
<v Speaker 1>getting sweetness through the rice starch, natural flavors, lemon pulps,

0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.640
<v Speaker 1>and life culture in there. They're not marketing aggressively on

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:39.240
<v Speaker 1>the probiotics, but it does contain culture. So that comes

0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.880
<v Speaker 1>in at just about one hundred calories per serve, four

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:44.680
<v Speaker 1>grams of protein, seven point six grams of fat five

0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:46.840
<v Speaker 1>foot one saturated. So this is not a low fat

0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:49.600
<v Speaker 1>product either. So you would argue for kids under the

0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:53.000
<v Speaker 1>age of five, certainly wouldn't be recommending reduced or low

0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:55.680
<v Speaker 1>fat dairy, so that certainly is much better for a

0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:57.800
<v Speaker 1>younger child, even though the portion is sort of for

0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:01.040
<v Speaker 1>me aimed at by a primary school age. But getting

0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:03.640
<v Speaker 1>some fat from dairies wouldn't be a cause for concern

0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:06.760
<v Speaker 1>for me in this context of a whole food. But

0:08:06.800 --> 0:08:08.680
<v Speaker 1>you can see the difference in sugar straight away land.

0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.160
<v Speaker 1>So if we go back to their large valia one

0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:14.640
<v Speaker 1>per serve, this was offering sixteen point five grams of carbohydrate,

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.320
<v Speaker 1>so just roughly a slice of bread worth of fuel

0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:20.160
<v Speaker 1>twelve point five grams of which so more than two

0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:23.080
<v Speaker 1>and a half teaspoons of sugars per cer in that

0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:26.280
<v Speaker 1>compared to this tama Vali one, which is offering only

0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:30.080
<v Speaker 1>four grams of carbohydrate and three point five grams of sugars,

0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:31.440
<v Speaker 1>so you can see the distinct difference.

0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 2>This has got a.

0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:34.920
<v Speaker 1>Quarter of the sugars and a quarter of the fuel

0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.560
<v Speaker 1>load from that food, which is much more appropriate for

0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:41.040
<v Speaker 1>a child. Now, neither of them leanna listing calcium, which

0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:43.840
<v Speaker 1>I think is really interesting, like you would assume they'd

0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:47.200
<v Speaker 1>be getting at least what seventy one hundred milligrams of

0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:50.240
<v Speaker 1>calcium per serve of yogurt like this, and neither of

0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.720
<v Speaker 1>them are listing out. So that's disappointing too, because we

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:56.320
<v Speaker 1>would really love to be using a yogurt as an

0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:58.880
<v Speaker 1>added calcium serve and we're not labeling for it. So

0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:01.800
<v Speaker 1>a shout out to both of those companies to label

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:04.960
<v Speaker 1>for calcium to help us with that, because indeed, our

0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.760
<v Speaker 1>kids need three serves of dairy minimum to get their

0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:10.839
<v Speaker 1>calcium requirement, and I would say, both are offering a serve,

0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:13.560
<v Speaker 1>but we are guessing it'd be really nice to see

0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:13.920
<v Speaker 1>that too.

0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, they definitely have calcium added, but as you said,

0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:17.800
<v Speaker 2>it's a bit hard when you don't sort of know

0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:20.480
<v Speaker 2>how much is in there. Obviously, this one would be

0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:22.560
<v Speaker 2>probably a lower amount of calcium than the other one

0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:24.960
<v Speaker 2>because it's a smaller portion. But I do like the

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:27.319
<v Speaker 2>whole food ingredients here. But I must admit, Suzia, I

0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:29.040
<v Speaker 2>don't love the fact that it's got cream in it.

0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:31.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm all for, you know, full fat dairy for small kids.

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 2>I think that's absolutely okay, but I just don't really

0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:36.120
<v Speaker 2>see the addition all the need for cream added into

0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:38.640
<v Speaker 2>that yoga. How do you feel about the cream in there? Well,

0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:41.200
<v Speaker 2>it's not ideal, is it must make it taste good.

0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:43.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that's why it tastes good, and I think

0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:47.360
<v Speaker 1>that's why the kids like it. To be honest, I

0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:49.920
<v Speaker 1>hadn't looked that closely at it when i'd been getting

0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:51.520
<v Speaker 1>it for my own kids. You know, I sort of

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:54.720
<v Speaker 1>look at the sugars and the label's got no sugar added,

0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:56.400
<v Speaker 1>So that's sort of where I go. My kids do

0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:59.760
<v Speaker 1>like this yogurt, But yeah, it's not ideal, but time

0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:02.160
<v Speaker 1>of our have often, i think added cream in their

0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.280
<v Speaker 1>mix to give it that rich flavor through the mouth,

0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 1>so you know, it's You're right, it's not ideal, and

0:10:08.559 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 1>that's why we're getting a fairly hefty dose of saturated

0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:13.679
<v Speaker 1>fat as well. So they could certainly improve this formulation

0:10:13.760 --> 0:10:17.600
<v Speaker 1>a bit. I also wonder if it's to give the

0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:20.920
<v Speaker 1>thickness that works well in these tubes, because if you

0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:25.400
<v Speaker 1>were dealing with a yogurt which was low fat, it's watery, right,

0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:28.640
<v Speaker 1>So I'm thinking that one of the reasons they may

0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 1>do it in this formulation is to give the thickness

0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:34.240
<v Speaker 1>that's required to make a tube type yogurt work.

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:37.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's a good point, because we like the nice

0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:39.199
<v Speaker 2>thick yogurts because there high in protein, and they're high

0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:42.280
<v Speaker 2>in protein because they're like double triple quadruple strained. But

0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:44.160
<v Speaker 2>we don't want high protein for children, so they can't

0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.400
<v Speaker 2>actually be quite dangerous because their kidneys can't process that

0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:48.760
<v Speaker 2>load of protein. So we don't want to high protein yogurts,

0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:50.760
<v Speaker 2>so we can't do that double sort of triple straining

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:52.880
<v Speaker 2>for kids. So you're right, maybe it is a form

0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:54.760
<v Speaker 2>of just bulging it up a little bit, although I

0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:57.880
<v Speaker 2>imagine the rice starch adds a little bit of bulkness

0:10:57.880 --> 0:11:00.840
<v Speaker 2>to that as well thickness to it. Yeah, yeah, we'll

0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:02.440
<v Speaker 2>go to get back to our food science days.

0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:04.559
<v Speaker 1>It's an interesting observation and it's a good thing to

0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.720
<v Speaker 1>chat about. Certainly, an adult yogurt I would be not

0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.440
<v Speaker 1>steering well away from cream on a label. But the

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:11.520
<v Speaker 1>other thing you've actually mentioned what I wanted to talk

0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:13.840
<v Speaker 1>about as part of this segment, because I have a

0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:18.600
<v Speaker 1>really big issue with the number of children I'm seeing

0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:23.280
<v Speaker 1>using high protein yogurts, because there's such a growth area

0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:27.040
<v Speaker 1>of protein based yogurt for adults and it's so popular.

0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:31.520
<v Speaker 1>I've seen multiple times kids using high protein yogat tubes

0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:34.920
<v Speaker 1>like the Yopros, the Shabani, which can have ten, fifteen,

0:11:35.040 --> 0:11:37.640
<v Speaker 1>twenty grams of protein per serve, and I want to

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:41.200
<v Speaker 1>really stress that they are not appropriate for children. So

0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:44.880
<v Speaker 1>the recommendation for protein intake for kids is actually really

0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:47.320
<v Speaker 1>really low. It's less than a gram peculo, and so

0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:50.920
<v Speaker 1>if your child is having twenty grams of protein in

0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:53.640
<v Speaker 1>a yogurt, in some cases, they'll be getting more than

0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:57.959
<v Speaker 1>their entire daily intake recommended of protein. So I wanted

0:11:58.000 --> 0:11:59.800
<v Speaker 1>to really talk about that and to say high protein

0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:02.680
<v Speaker 1>for kids are not appropriate, and I wouldn't be giving

0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:06.040
<v Speaker 1>a high protein yogurt until someone was in adolescents and

0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:08.640
<v Speaker 1>gone through their major growth spurts, so someone in high school.

0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:11.960
<v Speaker 1>They are inappropriate for primary school age children. So be

0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 1>very careful of that, because if you're buying one type

0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:16.320
<v Speaker 1>of yogurt for the family or just a few tubes,

0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:18.360
<v Speaker 1>and you're used to giving one to the kids, they're

0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:21.280
<v Speaker 1>way way too high in terms of calorie intake and

0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:24.160
<v Speaker 1>protein intake. So just be really mindful of that, because

0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:26.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they're differentiated for adults and children well

0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:28.959
<v Speaker 1>enough in the market, and I think you could easily

0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.840
<v Speaker 1>be buying the protein based yogas for the family without thinking, oh,

0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:34.360
<v Speaker 1>hang on a second, my child's only eight and it's

0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:35.920
<v Speaker 1>way too much protein perserve.

0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:38.280
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a really good point.

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.000
<v Speaker 1>We don't hear it talked about very often, and that's

0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:41.880
<v Speaker 1>why if we look at the protein of these four

0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:44.800
<v Speaker 1>grams for this little Tama valley, one six grams, because

0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:47.160
<v Speaker 1>this is such a large server, this falire. But as

0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:49.480
<v Speaker 1>I said, as soon as you're getting ten plus grams,

0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:51.439
<v Speaker 1>and if, as I said, as a child, their intakes

0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:54.520
<v Speaker 1>sort of I haven't got the numbers off the top

0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:57.160
<v Speaker 1>of my head to tell you, but they're really quite low.

0:12:57.640 --> 0:13:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Let me actually just do a quick Google just to

0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:02.360
<v Speaker 1>give you a reference point, because, yeah, I think in

0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:06.040
<v Speaker 1>this age of high protein products, it can be easy

0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:08.760
<v Speaker 1>to think that more is better, and it's really important

0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:10.880
<v Speaker 1>to know that small children do not need a lot

0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:13.200
<v Speaker 1>of protein in their diet. You know, for example, breast

0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:15.880
<v Speaker 1>milk is really low in protein, and that's why we've

0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:17.800
<v Speaker 1>got to be really careful. So I'm having a very

0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:21.480
<v Speaker 1>quick look. Children age four to nine nineteen grams of

0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:24.559
<v Speaker 1>protein and daily in yeah, wow, it's not a lot

0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:27.360
<v Speaker 1>those between nine and thirteen and thirty four. So if

0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:28.840
<v Speaker 1>you've got a nine year old and you're giving them

0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.080
<v Speaker 1>a high protein they're having more than half their daily

0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:34.480
<v Speaker 1>intake of protein in a single snack. So we'll say

0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:37.480
<v Speaker 1>it very clearly. Protein yogurts are not appropriate for children,

0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:40.760
<v Speaker 1>not until you're a teenager, and an ideally a teenager

0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:42.400
<v Speaker 1>who's gone through a major gross But it would I

0:13:42.440 --> 0:13:45.320
<v Speaker 1>ever be recommending a protein based yogurt, So make sure

0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:47.920
<v Speaker 1>that you are choosing natural, plain fruit yogurts with no

0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:50.800
<v Speaker 1>added sugar, and if you are opting for these pouches,

0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:53.560
<v Speaker 1>you certainly do want to look for ones that contain

0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:56.679
<v Speaker 1>no added sugars and ideally have a kid's formulation that

0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:00.400
<v Speaker 1>doesn't that keeps those nutritionals as they should, which is

0:14:00.440 --> 0:14:03.080
<v Speaker 1>relatively low, or as I do it my own homely

0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:05.080
<v Speaker 1>and just use the natural yogurt and add some fruit

0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:06.640
<v Speaker 1>and things to it. If I'm doing it as a

0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:09.720
<v Speaker 1>dessert or making of course frozen yogurt ice blocks, I

0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:12.520
<v Speaker 1>just get the natural. I think activ has got a natural.

0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:14.920
<v Speaker 1>They're harder to find, but you can get them. ACTV

0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:16.680
<v Speaker 1>has got a natural. I think Valley has got just

0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:19.240
<v Speaker 1>a natural. If you look that's not flavored. One was

0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:20.760
<v Speaker 1>a good one as well, yep. And then you can

0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:22.840
<v Speaker 1>just put them into the ice cream pops with some fruit,

0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:25.400
<v Speaker 1>mix it around and the kids love that, and it's

0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:28.280
<v Speaker 1>ticking the box on key nutrients like calcium without too

0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>much of any of those things like the added sugars,

0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:33.520
<v Speaker 1>and certainly the protein in the case of higher protein yogurts.

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:35.840
<v Speaker 2>I really do think we should be using these pouches

0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:38.160
<v Speaker 2>for our kids as a convenience or a travel option,

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:40.560
<v Speaker 2>not something that's an everyday option of the kids, you're

0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:42.400
<v Speaker 2>at home, they're having it on the weekend. Really do,

0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:44.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean you're reducing a lot of plastic as well,

0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:46.760
<v Speaker 2>like I think, you know, caring for the environment, something

0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:48.720
<v Speaker 2>that Zusie and I are both passionate about, so that

0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:50.400
<v Speaker 2>less plastic we can buy the better. So if you

0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:52.360
<v Speaker 2>can buy the big tubs of a family on the

0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:54.640
<v Speaker 2>weekends or at night time after dinner and not use

0:14:54.680 --> 0:14:56.360
<v Speaker 2>these small pouches, you're going to save yourself a heck

0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:58.080
<v Speaker 2>a lot of money, You're going to help the environment,

0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.480
<v Speaker 2>and you're gonna need a lot less sugar. In buying

0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:03.400
<v Speaker 2>something like a standard you know, just a plain yogurt

0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:05.840
<v Speaker 2>where you can then add natural based fruit to sweeten

0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:07.520
<v Speaker 2>that as well, I think is a lot healthy eruption,

0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.160
<v Speaker 2>a lot more affordable, and but of the environment overall,

0:15:10.480 --> 0:15:11.600
<v Speaker 2>very true, very true.

0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:14.160
<v Speaker 1>And I also actually just to wrap up, say we've

0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:17.120
<v Speaker 1>spoken about two yogats today that are in the mainstream supermarkets.

0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I am not aware of any great kids yogurts at Audi.

0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:21.920
<v Speaker 1>The ones that I'm aware of have quite a lot

0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:24.280
<v Speaker 1>of added sugar. The only one that I don't mind.

<v Speaker 1>In Audi is the lactose free fruit actually that you

0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:30.800
<v Speaker 1>can't find in mainstream supermarket. But if you're an Audi shopper,

0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:33.160
<v Speaker 1>you do need to be careful. They're tubes, unfortunately at

0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:35.640
<v Speaker 1>this stage are not great when it comes to added sugars,

0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:37.760
<v Speaker 1>so just be careful with that, all right. That brings
