A few weeks ago a representative from The Stretch Island Fruit Company contacted me to see if I would be interested in trying out their product,
Fruitabu. Since I had already been looking for products just like this, I was happy to fulfill their request of sampling the fruit twirls and fruit flats.
The Fruitabu products are real organic smooshed fruit with no added sugars. This means no high fructose corn syrup which makes me very happy since my 2 year old has a corn allergy. If you have a child who has a corn allergy you know how hard it is to find fun and good tasting fruit snacks.
There are two different products, the fruit twirls and the fruit flats. The fruit twirls are comparable to fruit rollups except that Fruitabu is so much more healthy for the kids. I’ve never seen anything like the fruit flats before but I have to say they are great and oh so yummy! The hubs and I ate just as many of them as the kids did. The fruit twirl is equal to one serving of fruit and the fruit flat is equal to one half serving of fruit. The USDA recommends five servings of fruit per day and let’s face it, most of us don’t get that. The fruitabu fruit twirls and flats are a great (and healthy) way to get extra servings of fruits.
The fruit twirls come in strawberry, apple, and grape. The fruit flats come in strawberry, apple, grape, rasberry, and apricot. My favorite was apple. The kids favorites were everything EXCEPT rasberry.
You can purchase Fruitabu products at several major grocery stores and health food stores as well as online.
Overall, we give this product a big thumbs up! We like the products, the kids(ages 6 and 2) like them, their nutritious, and actually taste great!
