Holiday Gift Guide 2009: Today’s Farm Freeze-Dried Fruit – Review & Giveaway





Food is always plentiful during the holiday season, and gift baskets packed with goodies are always a big hit. But if you’re feeling a bit bombarded by tempting treats this time of year, you might dread the onslaught of diet-busters. This year, how would you like to give a gift pack filled with something that’s delicious and healthy? Justus Foods would like to give three lucky Contest Corner readers a “Bag O’ Gold” filled with four packages of their yummy freeze-dried fruit, as well as a 10% off coupon, so read on!

My Take:

Justus Foods sent me my own “Bag O’ Gold” to taste test, filled with four flavors of their freeze-dried fruit: Apple Cinnamon, Pineapple, Peach, and Strawberry. I decided to serve the fruit snacks with our lunch, and the first thing I heard out of Jai was “Mmmm!”. He thought that this was “Outstandingly good”, and said this stands out in his mind as being an especially tasty snack. Fruit takes on a whole new flavor after it’s freeze-dried, and it’s fabulous.

Both of us really enjoyed sampling the “Bag O’ Gold”. I think that snacks like these are the perfect pantry staple, because it’s a good way to enjoy fruit when you’re in a hurry; the convenient packages make it perfect for tossing into a lunchbox. It’s also a great way to “Sneak in” more fruit servings during meals – I’m the first one to admit that I’m always looking for new ways to incorporate more fruit into my daily diet. And these snacks are just pure fruit, with no added preservatives; click here to check out the nutritional info.

I would love to give or receive a “Bag O’ Gold” as a festive gift – it’s tasty, healthy, and it sure beats fruitcake!
