The premise is good. Kids love stickers, so create an edible sticker you can put on food to coax them to eat something healthy.

Unfortunately the plan is flawed. The stickers may stick to an apple, but not broccoli. That was a disaster. And when you lick them they become extremely fragile, so good luck not ripping the sticker before you apply it to a piece of fruit or vegetable.

In fact, some of the stickers tore as we (the adults) peeled them from the cardboard sheet. Children simply aren’t as gentle, and who wants to see a child cry because his or her sticker tore in half? Not us!

The stickers have zero taste, yet the ingredient list is lengthy:

• Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (modified cellulose), water, maltodextrin, modified corn starch, tapioca starch, coconut oil, glycerin, natural flavor, xanthan gum, polyglycerol esters of fatty acids, citric acid, colored with red beet concentrate, turmeric, spirulina, red cabbage extract, and vegetable juice extract, sodium bicarbonate

Just the fact the company feels the need to explain that all their ingredients are deemed safe by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration tells you they recognize this is a vast list of ingredients. (Sticky Lickits)

The Sticky Lickits team obviously has gone to a lot of work to create this product, partnering with Paw Patrol and SpongeBob, and we applaud their efforts; but for us, it’s still an IMBHO-no.

P.S. We have our own paw patrol who tried them, too, but they didn’t come back for seconds.

While we won’t be purchasing Sticky Lickits again, if you want to give them a try with your children, you can purchase them on the Sticky Lickits website. One pack contains 30 stickers for $4.99. You can also purchase on Amazon; it’s 5 packs for $19.99 (Prime).
