Durable Playfood, February 7, 2010

Great play groceries for your child's grocery cart. They are more durable than the cardboard type and babies children don't tend to chew on them like they do the cardboard. Better imitation of the real grocery foods. Highly recommend this toy.

Ours came with no pretzels, but with salad dressing. Would rather have had the pretzels. Otherwise, good products.

       Great addition to play kitche..No cardboard here..., January 6, 2010

This is a great addition to our play kitchen, store, and shopping cart. Pros: Wooden - no worrying about cardboard boxes getting bent. Graphics - great graphics on the front of the toy, but nothing on the back. I thought it would have been nice to put some information about the food on the back like on real food. Especially in a society where reading labels is a big part of knowing what you are eating. Shape of the items - pretty good representation of the real items they represents. For example the spagetti is just like a pack of spagetti you would find in the grocery store. Great value for play food that will last. Cons: Nothing on the back of the items Heavy wood could cause pain if dropped on a little foot. Heavy paint smell out the package... Would be a little worried if my little one put it in her mouth, but she is 5 and I don't have to worry. I point this out if it is purchased for a younger child.

      Reliably good, but not exactly as expected, January 5, 2010

Always had good luck with Doug & Melissa products. This one was no exception, but I will point out that I was a little surprised and disappointed that the "boxed groceries" (cereal, sugar, crackers, etc.) were only labeled/printed on one side of the package with the back side being just solid-color paint. A big deal? Not at all, but then again these aren't exactly cheap-o toys either, so these are the kinds of details that get noticed.
