Let me start by saying, as a mom always on the lookout for healthy snacks, these fruit bars are a game-changer! The variety pack with Apple + Banana and Apple + Cranberry flavors has become my secret weapon for quick, nutritious bites.

The texture is perfect - chewy but not sticky, just like dried fruit should be. I love that they're literally just fruit with nothing else added. No sneaky sugars or preservatives here! My kids go crazy for them in their lunchboxes, and I don't have to feel guilty about snack time anymore.

Now, let's talk flavors. The Apple + Cranberry is absolutely delicious - tangy and sweet like nature's candy. But (and this is a big but) the Apple + Banana flavor... well, let's just say it's not for everyone. Some batches taste fine, but others have this weird artificial banana flavor that even my kids reject.

Size-wise, they're perfect for little hands but might leave adults wanting more. I often grab two when I need an energy boost during work calls or before school pickups. They're super convenient to toss in my purse or gym bag too.

My biggest complaint? The inconsistency in flavor distribution within the variety pack. Like another reviewer mentioned, sometimes you get mostly one flavor when you expect an even mix. That said, when you get a good batch, these are seriously addictive!

Would I buy again? Absolutely - but maybe just the cranberry version next time!
