We got the twenty-four-piece multi-pack, which comes with four flavors: Mixed Berry, Tropical Twist, Strawberry, and Sour Apple.

The ingredients for the Mixed Berry, Tropical Twist, and Strawberry are:
"organic apple puree, organic apple juice concentrate, organic flavor, pectin, colored with fruit and vegetable juice."Also, some vitamins and minerals are added.

Sour Apple ingredients are exactly the same, except there is no coloring added.

The "organic flavor" ingredients are not specified, nor are the fruit and vegetable juices used for color.We can assume that these ingredients do vary among the different flavored fruit ropes, but we don't know what they are.

These fruit ropes do not have the fruit taste we thought they should.Our family didn't like them very much.They aren't terrible -- we just don't think they're good enough to purchase again; but maybe that's just because we're accustomed to natural foods.

The ingredients aren't bad either, but they're nothing exciting -- as far as we can tell, they're just apple (pectin comes from apples) with anonymous color and flavor enhancers (and the supplemental vitamins and minerals).

Additionally, among the Tropical Twist flavored fruit ropes were several that had not been packaged properly.The ropes were sticking out the bottoms of the wrappers, having been squished along with the wrapper when the machinery pressure/heat sealed them.

The reviewers who thought these were very chewy must have gotten stale ones.The fresh ones are on the softer side, but still sticky.(Braces wearers, beware.)

For small, individually-wrapped dried fruit treats, I would recommend Stretch Island fruit leather instead.These contain the fruits named in their flavors (e.g. the ingredients in Stretch Island's "orchard cherry" fruit leather are: apple puree concentrate, cherry puree concentrate, orange puree concentrate, natural black cherry flavor) and they taste like those fruits, too, without being too sweet or tart or sticky.

Product Description:
Nourishing Kids In Motion™
In raising my family, I have always wished for organic snacks to feed my children--nutritious, easy to take along and foods that kids actually choose to eat. I imagine myself making these snacks from scratch. But sometimes we all need something easier.
That's why we created Organic Twisted Fruit--real truit twisted into a fun rope shape that's easy to slip into a backpack, a lunchbox, or take anywhere kids are on the move. Each delicious rope is bursting with flavor that equals one serving of fruit, with Vitamin C and B, and Potassium. What you won't find are sugars, preservatives, artificial flavors or colors.
Organic Twisted Fruit gives kids in motion a healthy choice for snacks with the nutrition and energy they need and a taste they like--so they can keep going and exploring.
I hope your kids enjoy them! Kit, Co-owner with her husband Gary, of Clif Bar & Co.
