Pom Potes - YUM Anywhere in US? Oh - and had a great time!

I discovered Pom Potes in my Happy Meal at McDonalds, and then was able to pick them up at supermarkets in France (including the Paris Monoprix). Does anyone know if I can get them here in the US? I wish I%26#39;d brought some back!





We had a wonderful trip! I love Paris - I can%26#39;t wait to go back again. We stayed at the Hotel Port Doree, which was inexpensive and fabulous (and the longest it took to get anywhere we wanted to go was 25 minutes). I will write up the hotel soon. And also props to the Villa Romana restaurant, right next door to Port Doree. They offered an English menu (which we didn%26#39;t really need), as well as the owner had them put ice in my husbands drink when he was there (we went three times) since he knew we were American. Great restaurant, very reasonably priced!





And unlike others who have stayed in that area, I found a lot of people who spoke decent English. At the wonderful Boulangerie across from the hotel, I did my best French to order - and then the girl at the counter said %26quot;can I get you anything else?%26quot; I asked if she was American, since she sounded it - she said her mom was.





I love Paris and Pom Potes! :)

Pom Potes is sold on internet but E4B is similar and available in some supermarkets in US and on amazon.com





It all tastes like baby food to me though, which is what it started as I believe.

Thanks - I didn%26#39;t find those other ones on Amazon, it appears they aren%26#39;t currently selling them there (I did find them elsewhere). I wrote to Pom Potes, I still haven%26#39;t found anywhere on the internet who will ship them to the US.





I like that they are more natural, and portable. I wish that the US had more items like that which weren%26#39;t as sweetened (but tasted great).

Pompotes is indeed baby food (exists also in peach, pear and raspberry version in the baby food supermaket shelves) - I didn%26#39;t know McD adopted it for adults (not a too bad choice, at least it contains fruits)

Well, I got the Pom Potes in a happy meal - which are for kids mostly, but not babies. :) I really liked them. It never looked like baby food, and wasn%26#39;t in an area at the grocery store where you%26#39;d find baby stuff.

E4B is carried in grocery stores here in the Northeast and Central states. My daughter uses them in lunch boxes for her little one sometimes. www.e4b.com ships



www.telemarket.fr ships pom potes, but not sure for USA
