I hate to write this kind of negative review, but i cannot recommend anyone buy from made in nature because they do not make good on their product guarantee. These figs can be great -- and they can be horribly infested. if you eat calmyrnas you know you have to check each one for wasps -- i expect that. But I also found little beetle-like bugs that i have never before found in figs, as well as a lot of simple bad-tasting figs. Amazon does not accept grocery returns, but made in nature promises 100% satisfaction. Well, i am 0% satisfied after several phone calls and emails i never reached a human, never got return instructions or authorization, and i am still out almost $200 for several cases (we eat a lot of figs!) of inedible, bug-laden figs.

We've bought several cases of these by now and the whole family loves them. Healthy dessert alternative, especially as they are organic. Compared to typical Calimyrna figs from Greece, these are less tough and chewy, and therefore prefered by my very young children.

About 90%-95% edible. Some figs are so dried out so as not to be edible. This doesn't happen often. I suppose it is a seasonal issue.

This is a product that is always good. Every bag I opened contained perfectly kept figs. Excellent brand in general. The fact that they are organic is a double plus.

I am actually embarassed to tell you how much I love these organic, sun-dried, unsulfured figs ~ they are too good! My true confession ~ I can eat the entire 7-ounce bag of Made In Nature Organic Calimyrna Figs, Sun-Dried and Unsulfured, 7-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6)... in one sitting! I crave these sweet, moist figs and have absolutely no self control once the package is opened. And the package says there are 5 servings to the bag...yikes! Thank goodness I can purchase them at Amazon for a much better price than at my local health food store. They are such a good value at Amazon, I buy them frequently.

These figs are soft in texture and easy for children to chew, however, I was disappointed in the lack of flavor. I love the Old World figs strung on a piece of vine; they assume the firmness and consistency of leather, but Ohhhh, the flavor! They taste like sunshine and sweet, old trees on a sunny hillside: these taste like nothing at all. . . just stuff with tiny seeds. They have no scent. They are not sweet. I take your word that they are figs, but they sure don't taste like the ones I've known.

I ordered these on impulse. It had been a while since I had tried figs.

I'm glad I did. These are delicious. They taste like the best Fig Newtons you've ever had, but without any added sugar, flour, or shortening.

It's rare to find dried fruits that aren't chemically treated in some way, but these are organic and have no added sulfites or any other chemicals.

They are a bit pricey, and there are only a dozen or so figs in each of the six seven-ounce bags. That's okay with me, though -- they aren't exactly low calorie snacks, so that's good incentive for me to not overdo it!

And who cares how they look -- they taste great!

These Made in Nature unsulfured organic Calimyrna figs are the BEST tasting dried figs I have ever eaten. They are wonderfully sweet and make a fantastic after-dinner dessert for those with a sweet-tooth, like me. They look a bit different color than the sulfured ones in the grocery store, but don't let that put you off. They look like they have been dipped in powdery sugar, a bit . . . but one bite and you'll be hooked like me.

These are the best dried figs I have ever tasted. I also bought the black mission figs for comparison. These figs are larger and tastier than the black variety, yet have a chewier exterior. I personally find these to be worth the extra expense over the other variety, yet find both to be excellent organic dried fruits. Perfect, as nature intended.

These are tastier than the Black Mission figs and are very moist and juicy. This is our second 'Made in Nature' purchase and we are very happy with the purchase. Great healthy snack.
