Stretch Island Fruit Leather

Stretch Island Fruit LeatherStretch 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.

Each 14 gram bar of Stretch Island Fruit Leather has 45 calories and 9 grams of sugar - all from fruit. Fruit strips are not necessarily great for a diet - it really is all sugar and no matter where it comes from - sugar is sugar, processed and refined.

The price (3 for $1) is just a little bit more than you pay for fruit roll ups, but they are by far a much healthier treat.
