I was disappointed to see that they add corn syrup to the blueberries.If you're going to use "Natural" in your name, you shouldn't add corn syrup!

Mariani Wild Blueberries, 4-Ounces Units (Pack of 12) Review

Mariani Wild Blueberries, 4-Ounces Units
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Because of the unhealthy ingredients in this product I would have rated this a ZERO, but that wasn't an option.

I bought this product thinking it would be of the same caliber as Mariani cherries, which contains "dried cherries and sugar."I'm not a fan of white sugar, nor do I buy or use it in my home, but at least it's the only other ingredient.

After I received my delivery I read the ingredients for this product- "Mariani Wild Blueberries, 3-Ounce Units (Pack of 12)", which I neglected to do so before my purchase, but I have done with almost every food item have purchased over the past 25+ years, and I found the following quite disturbing!

In addition to the blueberries there are the following ingredients:1)"Sugar" (who knows what kind. I can only assume it's refinded white sugar, but it's not as bad as the following 3), 2) "High Fructose Corn Syrup" (Nasty stuff this is!), 3) "Corn Syrup" (More nasty stuff and also useless), and 4) "Sucrose" (also known as "Splenda" with the Blueberries, and linked to health problems more than the previous 3 ingredients).ALL 4 of these are unhealthy and should be baned from all foods!I was looking for something natural and healthy. There's 'nothing' natural and healthy about white "Sugar", "High Fructose Corn Syrup", "Corn Syrup", and especially "Sucrose" (better know as "Splenda")

There is quite a bit of information available that proves these 4 ingredients are unhealthy.Search each one, or search "artificial sweeteners", and you will be surprised at the negative effects these have on the health and well being of both humans and animals, despite what the manufacturers claim.

Had I read the Amazon product description of the ingredients I would NEVER have bought this product!

I will NEVER by this product again, nor will I ever buy "Mariani Berries 'N Cherries, 6-Ounce Units (Pack of 12) again!They contain the same 4 NASTY ingredients as the "Wild Blueberries" product does!And they taste awful!NOTHING like real unadulterated dried fruit.

Mariani:You should have left nature alone, not tampered with the taste of fresh fruit, and only added some sunflower oil or Vitamin E.

P.S.I wonder if "High Fructose Corn Syrup", "Corn Syrup", and "Sucrose" are Kosher?

Rich in antioxidants! Bursting with natural flavor, just like mother nature intended! We call it the wild thing! They may be little, but they're mighty! Wild blueberries are packed with more intense, bursting flavor than their cultivated blueberry cousin. And did you know that eating blueberries just might be the secret to living a long and healthy life? As it turn out, wild blueberries are among nature's most powerful antioxidants - the stuff that keeps you healthy! Just one serving of wild blueberries provides as many antioxidants as five servings of carrots, apples, broccoli, squash, and 40 other fruits and vegetables, according to the USDA. Wow! That's one mighty berry. So, simply put, Mariani Wild Blueberries are a proven way to bring premium quality, nutrition, and taste to your savoring taste buds.

Blueberries don't need to be sweetened! When I ordered this, it was because i couldn't find any that were NOT sweetened, and thought that I would give it a try. Big mistake. All I can use them for is in salads (only a few), because they are WAY too sweet!

While I enjoy these, the reason I tried this brand over the others was because it said it had sugar and sunflower oil... both of which I have no problem with (i'm used to sweetened dried blueberries); however, i when I received the product I was very disappointed to see high fructose corn syrup in the ingredient listing and was kind of disappointed.

Traverse Bay Dried Blueberries, 4 lbs Review

Traverse Bay Dried Blueberries, 4 lbs
Average Reviews:

My son (toddler) is obsessed with blueberries. They're his favorite snack. Fresh can be very expensive in winter--and less than tasty.

I usually like organic, but many of the organic dried blueberry options are dry and super tiny. (Probably because organic blueberries tend to be smaller to start with.) They're also quite expensive, especially at the rate we go through them.

For the price, and based on the positive reviews, I decided to give these a try. The first batch I got from Amazon was terrible. Dry, small little husks. I was upset since, even these these are a good bulk value, $50 is far from chump change, especially for a grocery item. But Amazon stepped up, assuring me it wasn't a systemic problem and sent me a new batch ASAP.

They were right. Night and day. (I must have originally got an old unit or something.) They're large plump and great in baked goods. (I have a "blueberry cream" cookie recipe that uses dried fruit and these are spectacular there.) They taste like blueberries--which is a good thing--and are good enough to eat out of hand. Home run on the second try.

The company does offer an organic version--for twice the price, on their company website--and maybe I'll give those a go next time, funds permitting. (I like to buy organic and support the concept but, ouch, $$$.)
