A few comments from the Kid Kritics, "It had a bunch of healthy for you fruit and yogurt and it  tastes SO good!  Seconds, PLEASE.  I liked the fruit because it has vitamins and because it tastes really good! It was the best.. tastes like a rainbow!  I thought the fruit was really good so I felt like I was on a fruit island!!! I thought it was marvelous… it made my eyes bright and I loved the creamy taste!  I loved the freshness and how it tasted like ice cream!"
