Review of 'Bare Fruit' Bake-Dried Mango Chunks

Bare Fruit -- Bake-Dried Mango Chunks (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4.5/5
Summary: These are fantastic. They're chewy (yes, they'll get stuck on your teeth and yes, it's worth it). It tastes like sweet mango candies. They're super fresh and the mango flavour is powerful...well, the *only* ingredient is mango! The nutritional profile is really great and the brand is respectable (see brand info below). I would definitely buy this again. They also have Organic Cinnamon Apple Chips (reviewed here)!

Where to buy: Costco Wholesale, Whole Foods, online



Ingredients: organic mangos

The ingredient is zero-worry, clearly. The nutritional profile is great! For only 120 calories, it's super low in fat, has no sodium, and has a nice 3g of fiber and 2g of protein...very very nice. There's also a nice dose of vitamin A and some traces of the others. I highly recommend this product and the brand.
