The shells hold the smooth creamy sauce well, the flavor is mild and cheesy rather than sharp, and there are no chunks or unfamiliar textures to navigate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill my toddler actually eat this or will it be wasted?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCustomers describe Goodles Shella Good as kid approved by extremely picky eaters, and even great grandparents feeding great grandsons report that terrible eaters happily finish a bowl.
