[Bolthouse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bolthouse-fresh-foods) Farms' 'Carrot Meets Chili Lime' is a new type of baby carrots for kids that's been designed with a unique package that provides seasoning.

The baby carrots are kept separate from the seasoning until the snack is ready to be eaten. Once ready, the top of this on-the-go snack bag can be torn apart and shaken in order to disperse the [spicy-citrus lime and chili flavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oh-snap-chillime-bites). This snack is gluten-free and high in fiber, making it a satisfying snack choice for parents to send their kids to school with.

These Bolthouse Farms Kids Veggie Snackers present a new way to season [fresh vegetable or fruit snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garden-veggie-snacks-products) in order to make them appealing to kids and adults alike who are resistant to the natural flavors of carrots and other produce items.
