Sunsweet Ones Individually Wrapped Prunes

April 1, 2008

New Sunsweet Ones Individually Wrapped Prunes are a very clever idea -- great for kids, great for travel, great for the office and any time you're on the go. The individual wrappers make them perfect to throw into a pocket or bag for whenever you want a sweet treat, without the indulgence or guilt of candy or chocolate. An added bonus is that the wrapper seals in moisture ensuring a softer dried fruit than from a large bag. Overall, this is a great new product -- the only thing about it we don't like is the name; we think they could have come up with something a little bit more imaginative. Retails for $2.35/7-oz. container.
