I was buying these at my local health store for almost $5 a bag. I had not looked for food on Amazon until recently and found the same dried plums for $3 a bag.

I have been through 3 bags so far and I will be ordering more soon as they are the same product I was getting for more money.

If you have not had any "Made in Nature" products I highly recommend them to anyone who enjoys real dried fruits.
This are tree ripened so there is a variation in each fruit. I love that about this particular maker: the diversity of the fruit. It is what real dried fruit should taste like.
I would also suggest this makers dried figs.
One word: excellent.
These are the best darned dried plums I have ever had.
Buy them now and thank me later.

Otherwise known as prunes, dried plums are one of the very best foods there are, for anti-oxidant value. These are very tasty, and you don't have to worry about any undesirable or even unintentioned bad things being in there. Even my wife, who is a junk food junkie if there ever was one, likes them! Having 6 oz.re-sealable bags mean they stay fresh (vs. using 16 Oz. box). There is no down side here. Even as a very severe diabetic, I have no problem with them.

This is the first time I've tried these organic plums and they are the perfect healthy snack to keep by my computer at work. They're moist and flavorful, and we don't have to worry about chemicals or sulfur because they're organic. My 6 year old daughter loves them too and I'm happy to see her getting more fiber in her diet. We like to cut them into pieces and top salads and cereals with them or eat them alone. I highly recommend them.

I have only tried one bag of these organic prunes.

They taste best to me in home-cooked oatmeal. I add a couple to the pot before or during the 5-minute simmer. Boiling brings out the flavor and softens them up.

Because they are dry to the touch, they don't make my fingers sticky like Newman's Own Organics California Prunes, Pitted, 12-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 6). But they cost more per ounce than Newman's and their flavor when dry is not nearly as intense.

My wife and I have been eating these for over a year and really like them. We slightly prefer them to Newman's Own, but of course that's personal taste.

Delicious and nutritious. I've eaten through 3 of the 6 bags and have no complaints so far. Fantastic product.

Purchased Made in Nature prunes and really like them. They are not messy, sticky, and oily like Newman's Own. They do take more chewing as they are drier, but that can be solved by soaking for a few minutes to re-hydrate them a bit. Overall, they are my new favorite, although slightly higher priced than other brands.

I ordered these prunes as well as some from Newman's Own to use when I travel. I like prunes as they keep me regular and they do not make me gassy like some other fiber products. While these are good, I prefer the ones from Newman's Own. These are drier and not as tasty. I find that I like these particular prunes better if I heat them with water and add a little orange juice. But then they are not suitable for travel. Newman's Own are moist and travel well as they are in a resealable pack.
I note another review had the opposite opinion so your best bet is to try both and make a choice.

Dried plums are supposed to be moist and succulent, not so these. The word that comes to mind is RUGGED !

At the same time the name "prune" turned into the name "dried plum" the product got soft and gooey instead of firm and chewy. The texture of the changed product is more like spoiled fruit.

I have been searching for something that more closely resembles the prunes I used to love. These come the closest so far. They are still a little softer and more moist than the prunes of yore, but at least I don't find them disgusting.
