ADJUST YOUR FOODITUDE WITH YUM YUM DISHES!

What are Yum Yum Dishes?

Tracy Adler (restaurant owner and mother of two) created Yum Yum Dishes™ to help kids and grown-ups manage their snacking habits in a healthy way. Instead of eliminating all your favorite treats – enjoy them in moderation, in a Yum Yum Dish™!
Tracy is a former restaurateur and mother of two.  Her Yum Yum Dishes™ are a great way to teach little ones about correct portions size and help to keep snack size in check for grown-ups, too!

Recently Lisa Mosley (from Biggest Loser) signed on with Yum Yum dishes to be their spokesperson.  After losing 60lbs at home, Lisa continued to go on and lose another 37 lbs.  Portion control was a huge reason behind her weight loss success."Portion Control" "Smart Snacking" "Healthy Eating" "Losing Weight" "Family Life"

A portion of Yum Yum Dish sales is donated to Louie’s Kids to help in the fight against childhood obesity.

The Review:
I got one bowl to check out and add into my weight loss lifestyle.  I loved the cute design.  They make proper snacking more fun, and less guilt induced.  I know when I have a snack out of the bowl, I am getting the right portion.  No deprivation, just happy snacking.  I mainly used the dish for Squishy’s snacks.  It was really nice to have a fast and easy way of giving him a good amount of his crackers or pretzels to munch on without spoiling his appetite for dinner later.

I really love this idea, so much I plan on ordering a full set for myself.

Yum Yum Dishes rate an EXTRA SQUISHABLE on the Squishy Rating Scale (9/10)  The only thing I would like to see changed is a toddler/kid friendly set made out of plastic so as not to worry about breaking.
