Motts Unsweetened Apple Sauce

Motts Unsweetened Apple Sauce has 50 calories, 12 g carbs, and no added sugar. I absolutely love it. I really used to dislike applesauce. I thought it was for kids, but in my quest to find the healthiest snacks possible, I decided to try this. I'm hooked! There are not too many places you can find 50 calories of goodness. Of course, the small 4 oz containers means it's a quick snack, maybe paired with something else, because it certainly won't satisfy your hunger. If 1 is not enough though - have 2. Hey that's only 100 calories, you're still doing pretty good. They also sell them in bigger jars. If I'm having the apple sauce as a snack, then I prefer the 4 oz containers, since I know exactly how much I will be eating, and the exact caloric value. The taste is little tart. I only mention this because recently I tried the full flavored product. You can definitely tell the difference between this and the no sugar added apple sauce. My taste buds had to take a minute or two to adjust to the extra sweetness. However, I don't think you will be missing any of the extra sugar or calories.

The price is also right, since you can get a 6 pack for under $2. They have several flavors available, but I personally prefer the plain apple but they are all good.
