Having a nut free option is so important for a family. And also always handy for when friends or relatives visit and have nut allergies. This spread tastes just like Nutella and the kids love it. It is still a treat in our house but I feeling better serving this to them than Nutella
I try to always have some on a hand. Or atleast buy regularly as it is handy to have nut free options.

We're fortunate that my family don't have any allergies, however after my niece was diagnosed with a nut allergy (epi-pen style) we wanted to source a safe spread for when she visits, and after tasting the PeaNOT spreads (both smooth & crunchy), I decided to give the HazelNOT a go. I've never allowed Nutella in this house, however my kids can now have a choc "hazel(not)nut" spread that I'm happy to give them. Far less sugar, way more protein, I would 100% recommend this to anyone - nut free requirements or not. Even I now enjoy a choc (not)nut spread. Delicious!

The HazelNOT spread is my personal favourite. I was very happy to give my kids this in their lunchbox as I know it wouldn’t be a problem with allergies at school. So happy we found something else to go sandwiches that my kids eat. I also used it in cooking to make protein ball, amazing taste. My whole family gave it the tick of approval. It’s a slightly “naughtier” option but the quality and nutritional factors of this spread are healthy compared to its competitor, Nutella. Delicious and healthy!

I may be slightly bias with my kids review because I honestly don't buy Nutella - too much sugar. My kids are always whinging for chocolate spreads and I was keen to try VGood HazelNOT choc spread for the nut free element for school but also because it is low in sugar. We tried it combined with the peaNOT butter and a banana on toast. Both kids asked for seconds and loved it. Was it because they never get choc spreads? Maybe. But either way, they licked their plates clean. Given the healthy ingredients, I'm happy for them to have this in their lunch boxes and after school too. Everyone's kicked a goal in our house with this one!

This spread was so good I ate most of it off a spoon straight out of the jar. The kids enjoyed the little amounts I shared and begged me for more. I will definitely be buying this again, maybe only occasionally so the temptation to devour the lot is not right in front of me. The kids however would be happy for us to have it in the cupboard all the time.

We first tried Vgood HazelNOT choc spread for the same reason we tried the peaNOT butter spread - to keep my son's classmate safe. We weren't sure whether he is allergic to just peanuts or nuts so better to err on the side of caution. Its just as tasty as Nutella and I love that there isn't palm oil, the sugar content is lower and, of course, no nuts. The test will be whether it works as an equivalent substitute in my cheat mug cake recipes!

This was actually nice tried it in an effort to be more healthy and actually swapped it for nutella for my kids and they hardly noticed and I felt healthy eating it. I WILL buy it again and also use it in my Nutella cake mix to see how it goes. I thought vegan food was tatsteless but this us far from that.

My daughter is HUGE nutella fan but because my son has a nut allergy it's not very often its in the house so we were eager to try this. Texture was great but the taste just wasn't quite right.
I've given this a good review as I thinks its a great alternative to nut spreads but sadly it's not something that we would buy again. I highly recommend trying it as everyone's tastebuds are different.

These chickpea based spreads are so tasty and even my kid’s loved it. Its good for their lunch boxes and something Mummy approves as its has iron, fibre and protein. The chocolate spread is my all favorite in my brekky sandwich.
The best thing is its gluten free and Nut free. Definitely a healthier choice for my family. Do give it a try and you will love it.

Love it so much that I have to have it in every meal. It provides a taste sensation that feels like I’m having a party in my mouth. In fact I dream about it overnight and crave it as soon as I wake in the morning. The person who invented this deserves a Nobel Peace prize as I use it as a reward whenever there is a dispute at home. No one wants to misbehave and jeopardise the opportunity to get it.

This has become part of our morning breakfast and a family favorite too. Very fine texture and easy to spread. Nice substitute for chocolate while you are craving for one. Easy and fun stuff to add to kids lunch box. Definitely recommend this to all mums out there. My daughter enjoys her toast or muffin while I add a dash of this marvelous spread.

We were so excited to try HazelNOT as we are a nut free household with severe nut allergies. It’s been a really long time since we had anything even similar to this and it was a huge hit! I love that the kids can have it in their lunches too. Thanks for this incredible product.

‘I Grabbed My Car Keys And RAN!’ The New Supermarket Bread Everyone’s Talking About
Mum-of-two Rebecca McCracken has spent the last four years reading ingredient lists on pretty much everything she buys at the supermarket.
Like many parents raising kids with food allergies, a quick trip to the supermarket often means checking labels, comparing products and hoping to find something the whole family can eat.
Bec’s four-year-old son and 17-month-old daughter were both born with cow’s milk protein allergy. While her son has since outgrown his allergies, her toddler still reacts to dairy, making even everyday staples like bread a challenge.
“Unless we buy expensive sourdough for seven or eight dollars, we don’t really have a choice.”
Even then, it’s not ideal.
“A kid doesn’t want to eat a sourdough sandwich,” Bec laughs. “And fairy bread on sourdough is not great.”
A New Loaf On The Block
Bec runs an online community for allergy families, so she spends plenty of time sharing recipes, product finds and supermarket discoveries with other parents.
It was one of those parents who first told her about new JUST bread.
“A follower messaged me and said, ‘Oh my gosh, this bread is coming soon.’ I was like, ‘Where? When? I need to know. I’m getting my car keys and running!'”
Made with baker’s flour, water, yeast, vinegar, oil and salt, JUST bread contains no artificial preservatives, flavours or colours.
For Bec, it sounded almost too good to be true. “When we saw JUST bread, I was like, ‘You’re joking.’ A bread that’s fresh baked but in the bread aisle? That’s unheard of for us.”
“It was really exciting for our family and for the allergy community.”
The Family’s Toughest Critic Approved
Of course, there was one person whose opinion mattered more than anyone else’s.
“My toughest critic is my daughter. She is so fussy. We know something is really good if she approves it, and she approves it. She loves it. She’ll eat it plain, toasted, as French toast … whatever. She loves it.”
Bec says she was impressed too.
“I like it. I like that it’s only got minimal ingredients and doesn’t have the additives and preservatives that are in a lot of other brands.”
A Simpler Option For Everyday Families
Bec tried out JUST bread because of her family’s allergies, but she says it has a broader appeal.
“I think everyone is becoming more conscious of additives and preservatives in their food.”
It’s a feeling many of us can probably relate to. We don’t all want to overhaul the way we eat, but plenty of us are paying a little more attention to ingredient lists and looking for products that keep things simple.
Bread is one of those foods that’s always around. It ends up in lunchboxes, on the breakfast table, alongside soup on a cold night and covered in hundreds and thousands at birthday parties. When we eat something that often, it’s only natural to wonder what’s in it.
JUST bread keeps things simple with a handful of pantry ingredients and no artificial preservatives, flavours or colours. It’s the sort of loaf that fits easily into busy family life without asking us to compromise on taste or convenience.
Little Changes, Big Difference
For Bec, finding a loaf of bread her whole family can enjoy is about more than ticking another item off the shopping list.
“It seems like such a little thing to the normal community, but for us this is a massive win.”
Being able to make sandwiches without worrying about ingredients. Packing lunchboxes a little more easily. Bringing back fairy bread for birthdays. Sometimes it’s the little things that make family life feel a whole lot simpler.
And while Bec found JUST bread because she needed another allergy-friendly option, its simple ingredient list is likely to appeal to plenty of other families too. After all, when we can choose everyday foods made with ingredients we recognise, that’s a pretty good place to start.
JUST Bread is made on a line that also processes soy and sesame.
Mouths of Mums is proudly working with JUST. to bring you this article. JUST bread is made with just a handful of pantry ingredients. JUST. The Good Stuff.
I am so glad to hear about this and will definitely be on a look out for this in the supermarket. I have noticed that there are starting to be more ‘cleaner’ products in the supermarket, meaning consumers are being heard. We are going full circle back to how foods use to be produced before companies got greedy and started taking shortcuts to producing food items. I hope we continue seeing more preservative and additive free options that are affordable come back in the supermarkets.

Grabbing your car keys and running for a bread ?? I can’t imagine doing so for a bread lol ! It’s nice to see that more and more allergy friendly products are being produced and put on the market.
I don’t agree with the statement that “A kid doesn’t want to eat a sourdough sandwich”. It depends on what type of bread you introduce to your kids. My kids grew up with 7 seeds, rustic bread and sourdough and they love it. It’s also quite easy and cheap to make sourdough bread yourself.
I haven’t seen this bread in the supermarket but will be looking for it now. I have been trying to avoid preservatives and additives for some time now and as highlighted in the article bread it difficult to find, or super expensive, without them so I don’t have it often.
This is fantastic, finally a bread that is not full of nasty stuff. I will be going straight out to buy this. My son has ARFID and will only eat white bread, but it’s not terribly healthy. With this bread, at least I know that it is much healthier than the alternatives. Woohoo
I cant wait to give this bread a go (so far its always been sold out at my local woolies so it must be good). So good its suitable for those with allergies too. I think nowadays were all looking for cleaner options of ingredients in our foods so this is a step in the right direction.
I am glad more and more allergy friendly products are being produced and offered. I don’t agree with Bec’s statement that kids don’t like sourdough bread. My kids were introduced to sourdough and the most rustic and seeded breads from the time they started to eat bread, and they love it
Oh I cannot wait to try this bread! We go through that much bread each week and I always feel so guilty with how much my kids have – not anymore! Would love to see them introduce other variants in the future – multigrain and gluten free would be superb!
This is such a great product that I’m looking forward to trying! I’ve only been buying bread from bakeries the last few years because grocery store bread texture was so dense and unpleasant. But the hassle with bakery bread is I can’t get it everywhere! I’ll be really keen to give this a go
