It's hard to find snacks that don't contain a myriad of things we can't pronounce and have no idea what they are. I have been trying to find substitutes for anything that contains Corn Syrup or HFCS or other random ingredients. I always bought the big boxes of Welch's Fruit Snacks at Costco, until I read the label and realized they contain corn syrup and gelatin (their gelatin is pork based - nothing against pork but in my fruit snacks...really?) and they contain food dye. After a thorough hunt in the store, I came across these. They come in a couple of different flavours and are really yummy. I miss the large boxes of Welch's I was buying, and these don't really compare in cost, but they are handy to have in the diaper bag ready for an emergency snack! I don't use them on a regular basis, as I prefer snacks that don't come out of packages while we are at home, but at least when I need them I know what is in them, and I don't feel bad about letting my kids eat them :)
