Rusk Biscuits - Are They Healthy?
Ask a Question
Anyone can give me an opinion in these biscuits? I am trying to give healthy food to my child and he seems to like them but the sugar is quite high.https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/252387000
Hi GSM looking at it there's 1.25 teaspoon of sugar per biscuit which is a lot indeed.... I'd avoid personally.
These look less sugary nearly by half and for 3 biscotti
A lot of these so called healthy biscuits aren't really all that healthy at all. They may contain more fibre and/or protein than standard biscuits, but still contain a lot of sugar. My best suggestion is to give your child a well balanced diet whilst making sure they get adequate exercise. Good luck.
Love a rusk biscuit I used to break them into bits and put in child’s bedtime bottle. yes Health visitors don’t agree but my child. Found it helped settle though night too
These biscuits have 3.5g sugar per 100g in comparison to 20g sugar per 100g in Farley’s Rusks..
I have never given my son rusks, I used to buy the Heinz biscuits for him, but I looked into it and they had the same amount of sugar etc in them as a normal digestive biscuit and a malted milk. I no longer buy him baby biscuits but just get digestive and malted milks, it is much cheaper too.
You’re probably better off making up your own, as anything sold in the supermarkets are laden with extras you don’t want
