Disclosure- I am being compensated by Kraft for this post for sharing my thoughts.  All opinions are my own.

You know those days when everything seems to be a chore?  The kids are being pests, your stove is on the fritz, the internet is going haywire, and your spouse is running late?  We all have them.  OscarMayer (jokingly) created funny tarot cards to give moms a “peek” into their future to help them prepare for the chaos ahead as part of their new Deli Fresh Sanewich campaign. You can think of it a little like a HORRORscope. Get it?  Kidding.  Life with kids is never a horror, is it?  (Cue corney music.)

What’s up with “Sanewich”?  Oscar Mayer developed this campaign because they noticed so many things in the world are unnecessarily complicated. In these situations, it’s good to know that Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh can keep it simple and provide deli quality lunch meats anytime.  Like, you know, those dinners when you have exactly 11 seconds to get it together?  Perfect for those.

After a long day, it can be nice to sit back and unwind by watching a favorite TV show or movie.  It can be even nicer with a little something sweet while your watching.  With the weather getting warmer, your thoughts might (like mine) turn to cold desserts, naturally.  Did you know that Turkey Hill Dairy has come out with an all natural gelato?  They are the first major ice cream brand to do so- and it’s delicious.

It is available in eight flavors, like chocolate peanut butter, mint chocolate chip, and salted caramel.  It’s made with simple, easy to pronounce ingredients like milk, vanilla, and sugar- which is always a good thing.  One doesn’t usually want to eat what one can’t pronounce, lol.  Since gelato has less air then most ice cream does, it has a thicker, richer texture and a creamy taste. This is a great way for mom and dad to unwind at night- a little something special, not your average dessert.  You can find the gelato wherever Turkey Hill products are sold.

It’s easy to overload on candy during Easter, but there are some other options for kids that even look like little eggs from the Easter Bunny himself. Rickland Orchards Greek on the go! Yogurt Bites in Strawberry, Caramel and the newest addition Blueberry, all of which are available in individual snack-size bags. They are delicious, sweet snacks that you and your kids will love.

These delicious, chewy bites offer big taste and are made with authentic, European-sourced Greek yogurt and other high-quality ingredients. Other flavors include almond, pretzel and granola. My son loved them, and so did I. 

More About the Products

It started with a simple discovery – people all over the world were mixing Greek yogurt with nutritious foods like granola and fruit to create delicious, protein-packed combinations. So we took a strained Greek yogurt coating – blended it with roasted nuts, granola and fruit – and transformed it into a convenient, great-tasting snack.
