Organic Dried Apple Slices, 1.23 oz (Pack of 10) – Healthy Vegan Snacks, Gluten-Free, No Sugar Added – Perfect for On-the-Go, Lunch Boxes, Hiking, Office & School Snacks

My family loves mangos. I used to purchase them often at Costco. However for the past year or so the mangos they are getting in aren't not nearly as sweet or the texture as firm as they usually are. I am not buying them because they are unripe tasting yet are ripe to touch and stringy inside. Not good.By the way, if you do have good mangos at your location but just hate peeling them then you need one of the these: Healthy organic sugar free snack, also imperfect, and fibrous.I love that these are organic & have no added anything such as sugars or colors. This seems to be made from "slightly imperfect" offcuts from organic mangos that QA rejected due to imperfections during production of a more gourmet, organic dried mango snack.These snacks are often fibrous, a bit tart/underripe, dry, or have tiny bits of the edge of the mango pit attached, etc. No big deal if you're a mature grownup, but could be disappointing to a child who is used to a different organic dried mango product that isn't ever fibrous, is always naturally sweet never tart, isn't dry, doesn't ever contain bits of mango pit, and so on.I eat these and enjoy them just fine but my 2 yr old doesn't like these, and fusses. He's used to a higher-end organic mango product than this. Possibly kiddo's favorite organic dried mango snack is even made from the same organic mangos as this is made from, but only made from the superior quality cuts of those organic mangos.You get what you pay for. Can't blame these folks for making mango snacks from offcuts; after all, organic mango is too precious to waste!! :)My dtr was deployed and she loved these!The taste is great on these and they are quite fun to eat. At 3g fiber per pack, they are great for a delicious fiber supplement. However, while there is no sugar added - they do seem to be quite high in sugar at 20g. My one complaint is that there does not seem to be any vitamins in them. All they have is 2% of DV of Iron. I thought apples had vitamin C? (An apple a day keeps the doctor away?), so no vitamins. Just sugar and fiber. I wanted a healthy snack, but I'm not sure it's worth the high sugar intake to just get 3 grams of fiber. Eating a whole apple would be more nutritious.Also - the core pieces and stem pieces get to be quite annoying - granted I'm usually sitting in traffic snacking on a pack for breakfast so I can't inspect each piece before I eat it.Also - my 3 year old didn't like them, I'm assuming it's a texture thing.Overall though - if you are just looking for a tasty snack and aren't too concerned with the vitamin/sugar content - then these really are quite delicious! I do still want to try their other flavors.I have purchased this product (small bag of sliced apples, dried) before at local markets and it was good - nice, chewy apple slices, though not a lot in each packet. However, this order (a 10-pack) arrived on 7/21/20 and already expires on 8/21/20! Dried fruit that is only good for one month? The seller's stock can't be too fresh. I bought a single pack at a local market last week and the expiration date was 3/2021, so I am disappointed. I will have to wolf these down, or apparently they will go stale quickly. Boo-hoo. (Subtracting point for freshness.)I first discovered these snacks in college, and fell in love. Healthy, on-the-go accessible snacks? Count me in. So imagine my delight when, after hit with a craving, I found them on Amazon!I take them to work and around town and also took them on a recent vacation. I'm gluten free for medical reasons, so these are a godsend whenever I go somewhere I'm not sure I'll easily find something to eat.They ARE a little pricey, but for what you get--gluten free portability that doesn't have to be refrigerated and isn't a crunchy granola bar, FOR ONCE--I say it's worth it. I'd like to try more from this brand soon.5/5, would recommend!Based on looks alone, I didn’t think much of the mango snacks when my boyfriend pulled them out and recommended them to me. But when I tasted them for the first time, they were amazingly delicious. They are somewhat like eating strips of beef jerky, in that they are dried and sometimes chewy strips. The flavor comes right out along with the sweetness of the mango. It is hard to imagine that the snacks are completely natural without any added sugar. It’s also packaged such that it’s easy for me to throw it in my purse to eat as a snack as I go through my day. If you love mangos, as I do and want a simple way to eat them without the mess, these peeled mango snacks are the way to go.I am a huge fan of "Peeled Snacks" gently dried mango slices, so decided to try their apple variety. I was quite disappointed! They come as apple rings, but unlike the firm and chewy texture I was expecting, these are soft, visually unappealing, and overall, relatively tasteless.Consequently, these are not for me, and I won't be buying again.
