The first Fruitabu box I picked up at CostCo was a foot-long tape, that required unrolling to eat. My kids LOVED them. . . so CostCo stopped carrying them.

I found the Fruitabu Fruit Flats on Amazon. Though they weren't the cool unroll-kind, they've got the same good stuff in them: Organic Apple Puree Concentrate, Organic Strawberry Puree Concentrate, Natural Elderberry Juice Concentrate for Color, Organic Strawberry Flavor, Organic Lemon Juice Concentrate.

My kids love them, and I LOVE that I've found a -fruit- snack that is actually made of FRUIT.

Can't say enough about this product! My kids beg me for this stuff. It is a sure fire winner in my household and a healthy treat for the kids. Will be buying more of in the future!!

I loved these when I got them at my local grocery store but the box I ordered from Amazon arrived hard and stale.

If you've had the Stretch Island fruit leather in the past, you know what the flavor is going to be like - a nice mixture of sweetness and strawberries; there are no seeds and the Diabetic/Diet Exchange value of each serving is 1/2 a fruit. I personally found the Fruitabu version a little bit softer than the normal fruit leather, which was a nice surprise. The Fruitabu ends up being 5 calories and 1g of sugar less than their Fruit Leather counterpart, but they give up a little potassium and fiber in the process. Still, considering the chemical content of today's normal non-organic strawberry, it's probably ok to grab a little fiber somewhere else.

As strawberries are historically one of the most pesticide ridden fruits on the food market (source: USDA Pesticide Data Program), having the USDA Organic certification is a additional "warm fuzzy" when eating a snack that's pretty all-around good for you. You can feel good slipping one or two of these to your kids for a in-between snack, or for yourself as a quick munchie during the day. The only "gotcha" being that each individual serving (aka: flat) is pretty small in size, so you can easily find yourself eating four or five in a sitting without blinking.

Non-processed, fresh organic fruits are still better for you, but these aren't a bad alternative when hauling an apple around with you is impractical

I would recommend this product. Everyone in my office loved these. To bad the price wasn't cheaper. Happy I got it on sale :)

The Strawberry is the tastiest of the Smooshed fruit bars. It is a very good afternoon pick me up.

I regularly buy these at the grocery store and am stoked that Amazon has them. They are delicious, with just a hint of lemon. Smooshed fruit is fun to say and easy to pack as a quick treat for my 3 year old and myself. The strawberry is especially good.

My kid will eat any brand of fruit leather but I prefer this one because it's not gooey out of the package like all the others. As a mom I can tell you what a mess toddlers can make with sticky gooey hands and when they get to the phase where texture matters and they hate having their hands dirty, all those other brands which make a snack like this will fall by the wayside. I enjoy that it's sugar free and organic and that I don't have a huge mess on my hands when my 20-month old has finished it. I just wish they had a variety pack of flavors.

These great tasting bar and nothing but pure fruit. They make a great snack for kids or adults, quick to grab, quick to eat, no mess. Taste great. Good for you ingredients. What more can I say?

Great since they are peanut free. Easy to cary with you. The kids had trouble opening the packages, 3 & 5. The texture was a little tough to chew for the little ones. But as a treat they thought these were great.
