Crunchy N' Yummy Freeze Dried Fruits Review and Giveaway

As much as I love sweets, I do my best to limit them.  Especially for my children, ages 7 and 9 1/2.  I want them to have healthy snacks that taste great and that are also good for them.  After all, I want them to enjoy their snacks.


I received a variety box of Crunchy N' Yummy freeze dried fruits a few days ago.  While I was waiting for my kids to get out of school, I opened the box to see what was inside.  I'm not ashamed to admit that I had to open a package.  I chose the pineapple ones and I ate the entire bag!  I couldn't believe how great they tasted.  I don't feel guilty though, the entire bag is only 100 calories.

Each bag contains one serving, although my children shared a bag and were perfectly content.  The papaya have the fewest calories with just 55 calories per bag.  Banana has the most with just 110 calories per bag.  You will be pleasantly surprised with the nutritional facts of these delicious snacks.  


Crunchy N' Yummy come in 5 delicious flavors: Banana, Mango, Pineapple, Strawberry and Papaya!  As hard as it is for me to choose, I think the pineapple were my favorite.  Banana was my daughter's favorite and strawberry were my son's favorite.  That being said, they were all delicious.  As a matter of fact, the kids wanted to eat them every single day until they were all gone.  Now, they are asking me to buy more.



They are sweet and crunchy, which is a great combination.  They are easy to eat, no mess at all.  They are also perfect for school snacks and for eating on the go.  Grab a bag and head out the door.  Another thing that I noticed was the smell.  As soon as you open the bag, the scent fills the air.  The smell is also sweet and delicious, the smell makes you want to eat them.

Each bag of Crunchy N' Yummy can stay fresh for up to two years.  That's amazing but they would never last that long in this household!  I'd be surprised if they lasted two weeks around here.


Crunchy N Yummy products are USDA organic certified Kosher.  They are also a healthy natural snack, made from ripe fresh fruit at the peak of sweet juicy taste. Crunchy N' Yummy freeze-dried fruits taste great, contain many natural vitamins, and are the perfect daily serving of flavor and nutrition.  These snacks do not contain any preservatives, salt, sweeteners, gluten or nuts.
You can purchase these healthy and delicious snacks online at Amazon.com
