Squidgypigs – Binky and Wheeks Fruit Salad Guinea Pig Product Review

Today we are reviewing Binky and Wheeks’ Fruit Salad.

What is it?

• Dehydrated fruit slices.
• Packaged in 45g resealable bags.

Ingredients:

• Apple
• Pear
• Kiwi 
• (All in equal amounts).

What can I / my Guinea Pig do with it?:

• Eat it.
• Hide it in hay.
• Place in an activity toy or feeder .
• Create a fruit trail for piggies to follow. 

Where can I buy it?

• www.binkyandwheeks.com

Price:

• £4.20 for 45g

Nutrition:

• The fruit in the Fruit Cocktail mix are all reasonably high in vitamin C so this is good for Guinea Pigs as (like humans) they cannot make their own vitamin C.
• Like all fruit these slices are naturally high in sugar so should be kept as an occasional treat. I like the fact that this is mentioned on the Binky and Wheeks site:

• “A good source of vitamins and fibre, this is great for an occasional treat, and the small pieces make it easy to feed only little amounts.”

Review:

• Binky and Wheeks describe their Fruit Salad as:

“Apple, pear and kiwi fruit in equal measures combine to make this one of our sweetest treats! This mixture is unique to us and smells beautiful.”

-Binky and Wheeks

• …and they’re not exaggerating. 
• A wonderful sweet aroma hits you when you open the bag. 
• I really love that the Binky and Wheeks bags are resealable. 
• The fruit pieces are well sized and brightly coloured.
• The fruit sourced by Binky and Wheeks is food grade and the end product certainly looks enough to eat (as a human). 
• Slincypig immediately grabbed a slice of kiwi and it certainly didn’t last long before it was joined by a short lived slice of apple.
• 
• The 12 members of the Girlyfluff Gang were equally impressed and thoroughly enjoyed their taster.
• 45g is a deceptively generous quantity and would last a good while with a pair or small group. 
• There was even a fair bit left over after all of the Girlyfluffs had each taken their pick.

Conclusion:

• A lovely occasional treat that is well packaged and well liked by the Squidgypigs.
