I get that they are pushing "healthier" options with this, but it seems weird that a timbit or two isn't included as an option.

Are you sure?

The TH chicken strips:

"Seasoned Chicken Strips: Chicken, water, modified tapioca starch, salt, corn starch, sodium phosphate, dehydrated cooked chicken powder, dextrose, autolyzed yeast extract, chicken fat,
flavour, spices, onion powder.

most of the sides are something I could have in my purse already...I go to a restaurant for prepared food not shelf stable stuff. I second the call for timbits as a side.

Who in the world would buy this? Let's think of the real cost here.
Box? 12 cents.
Juice Box? 20 cents.
Wrap? 50 cents.
Cheese stick. 20 cents.
Coloring book/Crayons 20 cents.

That's MAYBE $1.20 worth of raw materials they are selling for $5
What an insane waste of money.

How is a cheese slice, two pieces of white bread and butter; healthy?
Juice box, water + sugar.
Super processed cheese stick.
This all seems like the opposite of healthy.

Fast food trolls out in force...

I'm going to give the chicken wrap/potato wedges/chocolate milk a try. Too bad I can't get it with coffee ;)

I listed the honest to god actual ingredients of the chicken they use in the wrap, not the actual breaded chicken strip itself. My bad.

The chicken wrap and Grilled cheese make the combos $4.99 eacn while the two chicken strips make it $5.79, at least, that was the price in Chinatown near Dundas & Spadina. Not sure about other locations.

10 cents from each sale will go to the Tim Horton Children's Foundation.

I am sure that 10 cent would really help

The most boring kids menu ever. This is gonna go the way of the kettle chips, premium hot chocolate, poutine and chilli in a bowl.....at least throw in a frozen for 6 months before serving donut. Tim's is killing it self.

Previously, if you took your kids their, you were buying them a full size adult meal for $8-$10 and throwing what they didn't eat away. I think this is great! To all the other posters trolling them on healthy options... remember they are primarily a donut shop, if you want healthy go somewhere else.

lol no the sides, the apple, the cheese stick in plastic and the candy pouch are all baggable. I think the stuff in plastic (the cheese and candy) are a cheap out. You can't tell me the candy is nutritionally better than a couple Timbits. I'd rather have something freshly made than something in a plastic package as my side.
