HUGE Back To School Snack Haul - What To Buy And Avoid!

[@jaimegutierrez2569]

I can't keep up with your "Bobby approves"...lol... you should make a cheat sheet with all the approve items.

[@jessica82882]

Jaime Gutierrez I started pausing and writing on my phone’s notepad when I see something I might try. If I’m feeling lazy I screen shot the item

[@aprilmorales7524]

Yes!!!!!!!!

[@mikeyg9833]

Jessica Colindres Lol ur so cute

[@naturalfabulosity]

Yes, please do that!

[@copperroselee1492]

Awesome idea! I second it!

[@mandicrever3529]

Can you do a video on what college students should have in their dorm foodwise? It's so hard to find good food in dining halls!

[@MadeUpLikeADoll]

That's a good idea

[@ruthfox2678]

Hi Bobby love these vids. I'm in Canada don't have aldis, but we do have most of these brands.. I just took back s bag ofstevia as I noticed at home it had malotodextrin in it. Wouldn't have known if inhsdnt been watching you.

[@BobbyParrish]

@@ruthfox2678 love it!

[@BobbyParrish]

good idea!! snacks or raw food to cook?

[@mandicrever3529]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish both! If you include both gluten and dairy free ideas that would be incredible!!

[@katherinesmith2365]

Could you please do a video on lunch ideas? I'm stuck on sandwiches and homemade lunchables. Teen sons get burned out.

[@dianneroy3208]

Yes lunch ideas would be great

[@errorASMR]

YES I'M TIRED OF MAKING SANDWICHES WITH 40G CARBSS

[@mikeganer6257]

I steam broccoli, mushrooms, spinach then add the quinoa rice from Costco and a can of tuna also add pesto. Boom 5 healthy lunches made in one day

[@arixxnexx1640]

error ASMR 🍭 yes for us but kids don’t wanna eat that

[@calebhuang2429]

Throw a beef Chuck or pork shoulder roast in the slow cooker. Steam rice. Prep half an avocado. Tupperware. Your all set.

[@anjalisadanandam]

I love how you use Waldo as the signal phrase here🤣

[@micheldevost]

You know it’s going to be good (bad!) when you hear “Look at the ingredients you guys...”.

[@jill9606]

Michel Devost LOL so true!

[@Noedman]

Who else read that in his voice

[@reginam3331]

Can you give us a list of all the bad ingredients or at least tell us where to go for it? Good ingredient list too. Too much to remember. Lol! Not much foods with good ingredients.

[@pattiemcd8790]

I have 2 ongoing lists on my iPhone that I’ve learned from watching Bobby’s videos and a couple of other credible sources. 1) Bad for me stuff......2) good for me stuff. Because I knew I wasn’t going to be able to remember everything I’ve been learning. 🤓

[@maryrosadio2141]

Pattie McDonough can you tell us what’s on your list for bad ingredients

[@pattiemcd8790]

mary rosadio .....omgosh.....I’d be typing for awhile but, here are some things for you. Dextrose Maltodextrin Rice syrup Polyunsaturated fats Regular table salt (Morton’s) High fructose Corn starch, modified corn starch, etc MSG (yeah, this one is a no-brained) I hope this is a good start for you. 🤓

[@maryrosadio2141]

Pattie McDonough thank you so much

[@pattiemcd8790]

mary rosadio......you are very welcome. 😊

[@markamark123]

Roses are red. Violets are blue. Art keeps it real @ 12:52

We love the darn cheese balls!! Dangit

[@milicadjordjevic4498]

same XD no kids lol

[@BobbyParrish]

we are all big kids anyway ;)

[@Panicatthejazz]

Me too. My son don’t like a lot of the snacks I like anyway 🤣🤣🤣

[@kathiemott3988]

Concerning the chickpea snacks. I make my own with canned chickpeas, nutritional yeast, and aquafaba (the liquid from the canned chickpeas). No oils, no salts, no sugars. And I know what is in it. My children are grown, so I watched this one to find out if it would be helpful for me. I can think of other snacks that children may like. Bananas, grapes, apples, mandarin oranges (just the right size for little ones), homemade sweet potato fries (baked on parchment paper lined baking pan, no oil or anything added), carrot sticks, celery sticks with need to stir nut butter, rice cakes (ingredient- brown rice only) ( spread with previously mentioned nut butter and top with sliced banana). Thank you for this video. :)

[@OurTreasuredHome]

Hello, can you do a video about the best Dairy Free snacks and foods for those you have food allergies. Thank you.

[@aprilssuburbangarden5735]

Agree! My daughter has egg and dairy allergies

[@themealplanningfamily2777]

Yes we have egg, gluten, and tree nut allergies! Would love an allergy friendly video.

[@joannepereira5080]

Gluten free allergic to nuts eggs dairy oils or any fat & more I watch the videos more to advised my daughters what to buy & for the grandkids & I love to be informed maybe I will be luck one day to find things I can eat 😊

[@Claudi771]

I’m so HAPPY 😃 you’ve told us about “natural flavor!” Unfortunately More people need to know how bad it is! Thanks again 🥰

[@mandybeddoes9112]

BOBBY PLEASE PLEASE KEEP DOING THESE EDUCATION VIDEOS , SO BRILLIANT ..... BUT !!!!! PLEASE BOBBY PUT THINGS BACK ON SHELF IN ITS PLACE ?????? YOU JUST DUMP PRODUCTS BACK ? WRONG PLACE OR ????? I FIND IT SO HARD TO WATCH BECAUSE THE THE EMPLOYEES WHO SPEND HOURS FILING THEM FOR YOU I FEEL GOES UNAPPRECIATED A LITTLE XX { YES I HAVE OCD LOL } BUT STILL HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF FOLK WALKED IN YOUR KITCHEN AND LEFT IT UPSIDE DOWN OUT OF PLACE XX

[@nunuhuda5093]

Mandy Beddoes agreed!

[@BarbaraWuDDS]

I have made so many healthy food modifications because of the helpful tips you teach/share with us. Please keep doing what you so great at doing. You are wonderful. God Bless.

[@autumntrap6945]

Can you please do a video on make ahead healthy kids lunches....maybe even lunches to put in the freezer and pull out to thaw in their lunch bags. I have 4 kids, it would be great to make huge batches at a time 😁

[@curtzimmerman]

The biggest thing I have taken away from bobbies videos is to read the ingredients. I used to think natural flavor was a good thing. After watching, I did my own deep dive and holy crap, he’s right. Best to stay away from anything that has that. It could be anything and not natural at all. Reallly turned off by this weeks live video where they kept calling out donations. So tacky. Turned it off, half way through

[@arjunt973]

exact same experience. i use to think natural flavors were good, despite they would upset my gut. after bobby i realized that’s why even with natural flavors weren’t the best

[@tritri56]

Thank you so much!! You are a big help and I appreciate all that you do by passing on valuable information.

[@Goldfish1284]

You should do a video on protein powders

[@patriciaburch6471]

I just bought 2 dif ones today at target.

[@Turbotomass]

Yes please!

[@waaakeup69]

Aldi has a really great organic hummus! Simple, clean ingredients.

[@BobbyParrish]

its not expeller pressed oil tho ;)

[@tsizzle]

I bought a box of Rx Bar at Costco per Bobby Approved recommendation (didn't read the back for "Natural Flavors"). And it was expensive! 😭

[@BobbyParrish]

return it!!!!

[@tijuanatripplet3642]

Costco will take it back even if it’s open. I bought my Rx bars @ Target. I don’t think I can return them.

[@thewadsquad]

My kids LOVE seaweed!! I am so thankful! They say the other kids complain of the smell when I pack it in their lunch, but honestly - I don't care. haha

[@jumpercable20]

That's great, seaweed contains Iodine, children low in Iodine score lower IQ's as Iodine shortage affects the Thyroid, don't believe me, look it up for proof.

[@sr1673]

I LOVE THIS KIND OF VIDEOS! It's so informative and helpful. Thanks Bobby! 😚😘❤ P.S. Don't let the employees catch you 😂

[@oogiesmuncher]

so are you not doing non-livestream cooking/recipe videos anymore? You only mentioned shopping videos and live streams in your intro... Not gonna watch a 2 hour long stream for a 10 min recipe

[@arixxnexx1640]

Oh no all of them are with nuts/ we are not allowed to send nuts in schools🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️love the video thou I thank you

[@rociodimas7670]

Thank you for all the great tips. Love your channel. I would love to see a review at Sprouts with snacks.

[@markfeldman7927]

Thanks for making us aware of good ingredients

[@yolandawessel9200]

@@BobbyParrish Now we know what not to buy.

[@deniseholloway]

I'm confused. In costco haul you said organic skinny pop was okay because of the organic sunflower oil. Now you say it's not... You also shredded cheese was coated with some type of wood chemical, but you use it on a breakfast sandwich.

[@sallyb5611]

denise holloway I think he said the skinny pop was organic and the one from Walmart wasn’t organic making it not good

[@jonette12345]

Skinny Pop has the organic line. Look for it

[@patriciaburch6471]

I was at our target today and the skinny popcorn had it without organic

[@ellietobe]

Most of the country does not have a Whole Foods store. It is sad but the food industry is almost completely controlled by the huge multi billion dollar corporations. Even Whole Foods is full of a lot of crap food. Their prices for good for food are just plain robbery. We should not have to pay 100x more for foods that have not been tampered with!

What about if a product is organic and it has organic sunflower oil, is it bad even if its organic? Or does it has to say expeller pressed ? Can you please make a video about canned tuna, i would really appreciate it bobby;)

[@BobbyParrish]

tuna is on my list!!! I am verifying that right now, but I am pretty certain that organic does not mean expeller pressed

Maxine F not necessarily, you can buy great food for cheap, however whole food is just overpriced for the same kind of food. Whole Foods also selling “bad” food too.

[@WICKEDHAMBURGER]

I have 4 kids and 3 of then LOVE seaweed in their lunches. Thanks so much for the video. It’s really going to help me navigate through the grocery store!

[@kaitr6957]

I love these! I wish we knew more about natural flavors and what’s really going on with this craze

[@arthrodea]

Has there ever been a study showing "natural flavor" of any type to actually have negative health effects? I also don't understand why Bobby is ok with something like collagen bars - the collagen in those comes from leftover animal carcasses and even fish that undergo extensive chemical and enzymatic extraction to get the collagen peptides. Its not like naturally broken down collagen in a homemade bone broth.

Kid loves seaweed snacks and says “more seaweed, mom!” ❤️

Wow you really bummed me out on this. For gods sake there kids, do we have to worry about every damn thing. Your friend had the best idea. Gallon container of cheese balls. Yes Just messing with you. I am new to our vlogs. I find them very interesting. Never thought about all the different little additives on labels. I just look at Sodium, Fat and Carbs %'s when reading those label. Now I will have to read a little more. Do you ever contact any companies about these issues? I can not afford all the special foods packaged. Keep it simple and buy whole foods and make your own stuff.

[@kathygemmi7682]

Thanks Bobby. I don’t have young children but I do have grandkids. Want to buy healthy snacks for them to have at my house. This is great

[@johnd5574]

Just FYI, even my (previously) favorite hummus from Trader Joe's uses sunflower oil. Made me sad, but I've started making my own hummus now. 😋

[@Evemend79]

I never thought natural flavor was that bad. Thank you so much for your information. Never buying another RX bar. I feel bad for giving them to my niece

honestly i was all for stevia till it gave me such increased anxiety and my periods stopped completely and still have not returned since i started using it instead of sugar, it is hormonal, and alot of the side effects are unknown or scary to say the least, i wouldn't want my kids using stevia or anything but maybe coconut sugar/maple syrup/honey

[@lockergr]

Bobby, don't you worry about the cancer risk of processed meats? I still buy jerky myself, and actually found some really amazing ones at CVS of all places, at least my CVS has really cleaned up their snack section and seems to be catering to people who are health conscious. I do keep my consumption of processed meats though within the guidelines. Basically it is my understanding that they say that any processed meats increase your cancer risk. I really get concerned due to family history. Anyways, Sytryve was one CVS brand, and the other I forget the name of but it was like free-range turkey with a black pepper seasoning and they had it both in sticks and in a bag. I was there at CVS and so wanted to buy watermelon flavored raisins, and I looked at the label and saw the dreaded natural flavors and thought of you. See, we do learn! Instead I scooped up some Emmys Organics organic coconut cookies in the vanilla bean flavor, and they had the cocoa flavor too. I had only ever seen those at Whole Foods before. Stupidly delish and grain both gluten-free and grain-free. Win. Aldi has some great spicy guacamole snacks that are clean too if anyone wants something to go with their chips! Just wanted to add that on as I'm eating that right now with my plantain chips and carrots. YUM.
