chewable
Ready for teeth
Chewable describes something that can be chewed, typically soft or designed to break down easily in the mouth.
The term appears most often with medications and vitamins formulated as tablets that dissolve through chewing rather than being swallowed whole: The pediatrician recommended chewable vitamins for the toddler.
Chewable options exist for those who have difficulty swallowing pills or prefer a more palatable way to take supplements.
