Snack Recommendation: Fruit Leather


This product, which I personally enjoy very much, is Stretch Island Fruit Co.'s fruit leather.  They are gluten free, non-GMO, and contain a 1/4 cup of fruit per strip.  Each bar is only 45 calories and there aren't any strange, unpronounceable ingredients.  There's always 5 or less (depending on the flavor) different fruit purees and that's it.  It's all fruit!  As for the nutritional information, there's not a whole lot going on there but it's not all bad.  These bars have 5% of your daily dietary fiber and 4% of your daily Vitamin C.  There's a little bit of potassium and a few carbs but both are less than 4%.  Now, these fruit leathers may not be the best snack in the world, but they are way better than chips, cookies, and the like.
