Around 92% of UK children aren't getting enough fruit and veg.
This is a chocolate-flavoured greens drink with 30+ whole-food ingredients and zero added sugar, built for kids aged 3+ to fill those gaps — and picky eaters actually ask for it. Here's the full story. 👇
The plate looks the same every night: beige, chicken nuggets pushed aside, the broccoli untouched.
You cut it smaller. You made it into a smiley face. You promised pudding. And still, three years in, the vegetables go back in the bin and you go to bed quietly wondering if any of it is landing.
Why does every mealtime turn into a battle?
If your child lives on toast, pasta and sand-coloured foods, you already know the drill. It isn't laziness or failure. Some kids are just wired to reject new textures and flavours — and greens are the first casualty.
So you try the gummies. She spits them out or, worse, treats them like sweets. You try hiding spinach in the sauce; he tastes it instantly and refuses the whole bowl. Every workaround becomes its own small war.
And underneath all of it sits a quieter worry that never quite switches off: is she actually getting what she needs to grow?
So, what's picky eating actually costing your child?
Most parents never see this spelled out clearly.
When a child eats the same handful of beige foods on repeat, it isn't just variety they're missing — it's the vitamins and minerals hiding inside the foods they refuse.
Call it the picky-eater gap: the slow, invisible shortfall between what a growing body needs and what a fussy plate delivers. Iron for focus. Vitamin D and calcium for bones. B-vitamins for energy. Leafy greens for a calm tummy.
It's more common than it feels. Around 92% of UK kids don't get enough fruit and veg, and more than half fall short on iron and vitamin D specifically.
That's why gummies rarely fix it — most carry a few isolated, lab-made vitamins and surprising sugar, not the broad spread of real food a child is missing.
Close the picky-eater gap with whole foods, and you're no longer fighting the plate. You're just filling in around it.
What did these parents finally find?
What worked wasn't another vitamin to argue over. It was a cup of chocolate milk — one the child asks for.
LittleVitz Kids Super Greens is the UK's first greens powder built specifically for children aged 3+. You stir one scoop into milk and it tastes like a chocolate shake, with zero veggie flavour and no added sugar.
It slips past the fussiness because it doesn't taste like the thing they're refusing.
Inside that scoop are 30+ whole-food ingredients — real greens, vitamins and minerals. They're chosen to fill the picky-eater gap, not paper over it with synthetic nutrients. It's made in the UK, third-party tested, and formulated by nutritionists.
A parent handing it over the first morning tends to brace for a fight that never comes. The cup comes back empty. And often, the next morning, the child is the one asking for it.

How long until you notice a difference?
The first win comes fast — a child who actually finishes the cup. The quieter changes, the ones that made you worry in the first place, tend to show up over the weeks that follow. Here's the rough shape of it.

What parents tell us about the morning moment.
"Loved by fussy eaters"
"100% Kid-Approved Taste"
"I purchased the Super greens and cups as my toddler struggles to eat breakfast and really doesn't like eating fruit and veggies! He loves a smoothie and I was struggling to find a decent cup to give him the smoothie in. Most with non removable straws on the highstreet are much too small. Needless to say he loves the taste of the smoothie and the cu"
"To say I have struggled with my kids and what they eat is the understatement of the century! They never seem to want to eat anything that isn't beige and fight me on everything. I bought this because one of my kids tried it at a one of their friends houses and she actually liked it. Since then both my daughter and son have had it every morning, the"
"This has been great for my son who quite literally will eat nothing that isn't beige. Tastes great, he likes it just with cold milk, but we do sometimes make pancakes that he wolfs down. I highly recommend if you have a small picky eater."
Questions parents ask before their first scoop
Will my picky eater actually drink it? Is it worth it over cheaper gummies? Is it safe for a three-year-old? The questions parents send before ordering tend to be the same three — so here are straight answers.
