FruitaBu Organic Smooshed Grape Fruit Twirls
FruitaBu Organic Smooshed Fruit Twirls look like Fruit Roll Ups, but FruitaBu is made from real fruit (and is certified organic), with each pack being equivalent to 1 fruit serving (the first ingredient in Fruit Roll Ups is fruit, but the 2nd and 3rd ingredients are corn syrup and there is partially hydrogenated oils in it also).
I tried the Smooshed Grape flavor and all I could say is *yum*
. The roll is long - twice the size of Fruit Roll Ups, and it is sweet (maybe too sweet for my tastes). I much say that all I could taste was an apple flavor even though this was supposed to be grape - and a look at the ingredients reveals that apple concentrate is the 1st and 2nd ingredient, while white grape juice is 3rd and 4th - but then apple is back again as the 5th ingredient!
Stretch Island Fruit Leather
Stretch Island Fruit Leather is similar to the more well know Fruit Roll Ups but BETTER. This is because they are made from real fruit and nothing else - no added sugar, no preservatives or additives. The ingredients in the Harvest Grape Flavor which is the one I tried are apple, grape and pear puree concentrate. PLUS each piece of 'fruit leather' (14 grams) is half a serving of fruit.
And you don't have to worry if you or your kids will like the taste, because this is exactly the sweet, juicy, chewy yet tender fruit strip that you have grown to know and love.
