Revised Product Review – I would like to Express my complete gratitude for the quick response and resolution received by the manager at Munchkin. Our little one suffered horrible Colic and a lot of stomach problems that left him screaming every night for hours on end. We tried numerous formula brands that gave our son little to no relief. Once we tried Munchkin we actual… Read more · 4
noticed a difference in our sons unsettled periods. The formula is easy to make and the storage compartment for the scoop spoon is very creative. This idea prevents you from digging in the formula for the scoop spoon and prevents it from sticking to it. Unfortunately I was unable to breastfeed due to heath issues, Munchkin has been the next best Milk alternative for our little one. We had an issue with stock supply and misinformation given by Woolworths. Munchkin resolved all of my uncertainty. I can highly recommend this company. The quick response and initiative received by the manager shows that they care about their product and us mums who have no choice but to rely on baby formula. The only advice I would give to Munchkin is providing bigger cans for the 50ml scoop intervals.
Daughter loves it and appears to have essential fats? – Just to be upfront, this review is based on what we have experienced with our daughter consuming this and not every formular suits every baby. We first started with Aptamil and our daughter drank it with no issues for a long time, almost over 6 months, but then noticed slowly that her appetite was decreasing. Therefore we tried few other brands… Read more · 1
which increased her appetite but she would be more hyperactive and not sleep well during the night. Once we saw this on offer at Coles and I was reading that it says "Grassfed". It sounded good from the description, so thought give it a try. Surprisingly my daughter won her full appetite and just drinks and drinks. She really loves it. When cleaning the bottles I can also tell that there is a bit more fat which I didn't notice with any formular, so I'd assume its a good thing. Sleeping is also much better and so is her behaviour overall (sounds weird I know).
As described earlier, not every formular is suitable for every baby so parents need to find the right one for their little one. Give this one a chance, we have no regrets.
Brilliant for my bub! I wish i could give 6 stars! – I've tried a number of formulas for my 12 week old boy - Nestle Nan Pro, Aldi's Mamia, Aptamil Gold AR, Karicare Goat's Milk..... and although they are great for a lot of other bubs, (my daughter was on Nestle from day dot with no issue) they all start off fine for a short time, but then end up giving him stomach cramps, diarrhoea etc. I decided… Read more · 1
to try Munchkin Grass Fed after reading all the positives about it, and we have never looked back! After the first bottle, he burped immediately, and fell asleep straight away. And slept soundly. I dont remember the last time he drank without crying and writhing in pain. I esp love that this product is made in NZ, which is known for its fantastic milk/dairy. I can't emphasise enough how wonderful this product has been, and just wish I'd discovered it earlier (our nearest supermarket is Woolworths, who don't stock this product, so I never came across it until shopping at Coles one day). Thank you!

Buy bulk! Worth the money! – Easy transition from profutura (we needed a new one because it was out of stock for awhile). LO never had an issue no colic or whatsoever. Worried it was discontinuing I emailed the Munchkin Team to order bulk. Swift and straightforward transaction. We ordered good for 6 months, best decision ever! Now we are on lock down I don't need to search and go to different suburbs just to buy formula. Show details
Best decision! – First time mum I had no idea what formula to use after I gave up breastfeeding after 4 months. So many good options out there but I decided to try Munchkin and it worked really well for my baby. She got hooked on really quick, no issues or side effects. Affordable and very easy to prepare. Sad to see it being discontinued! Show details
Best formula for a premature baby – We used stage 1 Grass Feed for my daughter who was born premature. We tried Nan super and Aptamil gold at first because we were told they are well know companies. But my baby can’t tolerate them and vomited . From the review from this website we decide to try Grass Feed and it was fabulous and most importantly my baby was happy and putting on… Read more · 1
weight which made us confident to continue to use it. It is very sad that it is discontinued and we don’t know which formula would be the best replacement for Grass Feed? Thanks Grass Feed for making such a good formula for my baby.

Allergic reactions – Gave our bub allergic reactions had to rush to the emergency. Would not recommend or please check for allergic reactions before giving this to your baby. Thank God she didn't drink much. Show details
Not for my bub – Tried my little one on the Munchkin grass fed after having some issues with Aptamil and unfortunately it made her projectile vomit as soon as it hit her belly. The formula was extremely easy to prepare and tastes exactly like cows milk - a shame it didn’t work for my bub! Show details
Hi Sorry to hear it didn't work for your little one, hope she is doing better now?
have to change formula – my daughter was on stage 1 and stage 2 just fine. she’s now 12months and she’s been on stage 3 for around a week now. from having regular bowel movements, she’s now going every second or third day. i also found that this formula is super frothy (didn’t have that issue with stage 1 and 2). i used this formula to mix in with her morning oats (i used… Read more
to use stage 2 and it worked just fine) and it seemed to seperate in the microwave (could tell this as i put blueberries in and i could see the milk on the blueberries, it looked like the milk had gone off). really weird as i didn’t have an issue with stage 1&2.

Amazing – Moved my first son onto Munchkin after some other not so amazing formulas and he never looked back. Another kid on the way but can't seem to find it any more? Show details
Baby’s skin issues gone in no time – My granddaughter had issues of “baby acne” from other formulas. Also supp breast for the first 2 months. Has been on yours for 2 weeks and her cheeks and general skin condition appears to have improved dramatically. Even has a glow and sheen to it now. She loves her bottles too. Such a shame I only picked up the last two cans discounted and… Read more
discontinued but thought I would try non gmo and no grass fed whey powder. I myself use another NZ long life milk and butter with no tummy problems unlike Aussie milk.
Help! – Since we can’t find the formular anymore. We have a bulk of stage 3 but my Bub is 10months ( 11 in 10 days ) Is it okay to give stage 3 .. if not is there anything similar
Used from 5m - 2. Sad it will no longer be produced for 2nd baby! – We used stages 1,2 & 3 from 5 months to nearly two, my son enjoyed and tolerated well. We are very sad that it is no longer being produced. Best alternatives?? Show details · 1

Customer loves this – I work at woolworths and a lady came in the other day wanting to buy any stock we had is there another way she can get this as it has been deleted?? Show reply
Really good formula – Bub took this formula from birth with no issues. Devastated that its being discontinued as im so hesitant to change formula.does anybody know where we can purchase a bulk of stage 2 tins Show details · 1
Very good formula, so sad it’s getting discontinued – We have been using this formula without issue. I read that the formula is getting discontinued. Our baby is 5 months old. Now we are confused we should move to which new stage 2 formula. Any one made the switch, any recommendations Show details
Best formula! – My baby loves this formula. It was originally bought because the first formula we tried for her gave her colic really bad. Once we put her on the stage 1 munchkin she had no issues and we followed on with stage 2. When I went to buy more every shop had none except chemist warehouse online. In the interim waiting for the order to arrive I had to… Read more · 1
buy a formula closest in ingredients as I was running low on the last can. I started the new formula and my baby ended up loving it and not wanting to take the munchkin one after. Sad that this formula has been discontinued. The chemist warehouse order finally arrived and now I have 2 cans available if anyone in Perth needs. Unopened brand new.
Love Munchkin – Before we had our baby my wife would spend hours reading up on reviews for all different types of formulas. She came to the conclusion that Munchkin had the best reviews and was rated one of the best. Knowing that it was a NZ owned company we were absolutely sold. Bubs is 9 weeks old and unfortunately due to not producing enough breast milk I… Read more · 1
had to make the hardest decision to formula feed her. She absolutely loved Munchkin. She finishes every bottle with a settled stomach, brings her wind up so easily and she sleeps so well. I just found out that Munchkin has discontinued this product and I cried because it has been so good for my little one. It is going to be so hard to find a replacement. I am so devastated.
Good Quality - Supply Issue – We started from stage 1 and move to stage 2 with no issues for our baby. Unfortunately there has been few times that this product have had supply issues in the past couple of months. We decided to change our baby formula in April 2021 after another period of lack of supply. Show details · 1
Perfect for my newborn bub! – My bub has been purely formula fed since 5 weeks old. He never showed any side effects and took to this formula straight away. Quite sad it is being discontinued. Show details · 1
I love this formula, so sad it’s being discontinued!!! – Honestly I’ve had nothing but amazing things to say about this formula, I was initially upset with how hard it was to find in supply in stores but thankfully I could always find some online! Now I’m really unsure what to do as Munchkin will no longer be making bubs favourite formula :( thank you for providing my Bub with the best start and I… Read more · 1
honestly would like to know why the sudden discontinuation? Especially when they won one of the best formulas for 2021 on product review
Good but no organic certification – This is the first formula I used for my newborn and while I had no issues with it, I realised that this formula had no certification (organic or grass fed) This is the main reason why I stopped using it and started to move towards another brand with certifications. In terms of box design, I really liked how easy it was to open the box with one… Read more
hand (while Carrying baby) I disliked the fact that the spoon is worth 60ml which caused a lot of formula to be thrown. My new formula has a 30ml spoon which I find way better.

Great product highly recommend – We started using this product at two weeks old after first trying NAN, seems easier on the tummy and he’s more regular with poops, once a day from 2 or 3 days while on NAN. Baby is part feed breast milk but majority formula as issues with milk coming in, highly recommend. Show details · 1
Excellent for mixed fed baby – I bought this formula and another popular one before baby was born and just as lockdown happened. I picked Munchkin due to the reviews on here. My baby is exclusively breastfed but we did use formula on occasion before his tongue tie release for a couple of feeds. This formula was gentle on his tummy and easy to prepare. He didn’t have any pains… Read more · 1
when he had it or any other issues. I was glad we didn’t have to go through multiple formulas to find an appropriate one.
I like it – My bub start having Munchkin the first week haven't try any other brand. He prefers Munchkin than breastmilk so I stopped breastmilk feed after a month. Now he is 2 months old, I'm not sure is it the formula not thick enough, he have 100ml - 150ml he will still feel hungry after an hour Show details
Wonderful product, great for formula-fed babies – My son is a formula-fed baby since I couldnt produce breastmilk. We tried A2, Bellamys, Nan, S26, Aptimal, Novalac before settling with Munchkin. Great formula and my son loves it Show details · 1
Why didn’t I use this brand sooner!! – My son had been on Bellamy’s since 6w and is now 7 months.. he constantly had wind and reflux issues (went down the path of adding things to try and eliminate these issues and nothing worked) and I’ve now used this formula for 2 weeks and it’s been incredible. Makes me upset I didn’t start it sooner! Life changing!! Show details · 1
Gentle on my bubbs tummy! – My daughter have tried NAN, BLACKMORES etc she's struggled with all of them finally found this thabks to product review!! She's happier no regrets! Try it and see for yourself Show details · 1
Easy transition from stage 1 – My baby girl enjoy the transition to the stage 2 and we didn’t have any problem in general. Easy as usual to prepare...just a very good formula overall. The baby is growing happy...and an happy baby is an easier baby. Show details · 1
I love this product! – This formula milk is a game-changer! I think my standards with grassfed milk are very high and this has exceeded that, most of them have caused hiccups and a few other things. However when I switched to this one, I noticed my baby has been less fussier than before. Show details · 1
Tried Other Popular Brands, My Son Chose Grass Fed – My son really loves Grass Fed milk. I tried other 2 popular brands (I even compared the nutrients, both of them got slightly higher OMG3/6, prebiotics & probiotics), but none of them worked well for my son (they caused reflux). With Munchkin Grass Fed milk, my son gained 1 kg+ in the first month and he is so far so happy with it. Can't recommend them enough! Show details · 1
Great formula – Our baby girl always finish the bottle and she is a very happy baby. It is just very good product...we tried another brand but she refused to drink it. We will moving to stage 2 in few weeks Show details · 1
Baby loves the taste and actually finished bottle !!! – First off, the VERY few reviews against this formula is ridiculous because every baby is different you can’t straight up say this formula isn’t good if it didn’t work for you!! I have tried aptamil, a2 platinum and Bellamys after 6 months of breastfeeding and she plain and simple did not enjoy drinking those formulas like she does with munchkin.… Read more · 1
She has a 150ml bottle before bed at 9pm, has another one between 3-4am and then wakes up for the morning 9-10am. I’m extremely happy, my friend recommended it! It’s the best feeling to see your baby actually like their milk. Five star from my baby! Btw it dissolves so easily in water not like those other formulas I mentioned.
Doesn’t live upto the reviews – I was breastfeeding my baby and trying to find a formula to wean him off on to that wouldn’t constipate him as Nan comfort was very constipating unfortunately. Munchkin didn’t constipate my baby but unfortunately my baby didn’t like the taste initially - after a while he got used to the taste but he was always very cranky and hungry and never… Read more
satisfied after his munchkin formula feeds. I’ve now had to change him to Aptamil gold and he’s a bit happier after his feeds and more satisfied at least. Munchkin has been very disappointing and it proved to me that just because a formula is more expensive or grass fed DOES not make it better than a cheaper alternative.
Hi. Glad to hear your little one is doing well on… Read more
The best – My daughter loves drinking this. The reason I chose this one, after extensive research, was the fact it is made from grass fed cows. It is much easier on her tummy than other brands I have used which cause constipation. The hard part will be getting her off drinking this!!! Show details · 1
