Funky Monkey Snacks Purple Funk, Banana with Acai, Freeze-Dried Fruit, 1-Ounce Bags (Pack of 12)

I read some of the bad reviews for this product and was concerned, however, I ordered it anyway.....I am so glad I did. This snack is delicious. I'll agree with some viewers that it gets sticky in your mouth and gums up your teeth.....but it's temporary and your mouth clears out quickly so it's no big deal...at least not for me. I bought this also because my grandson is highly allergic to most foods on the market unless they are fresh fruits and vegetables so this gives him a little variety. They are easily packed away in his diaper bag for snacks during the day. I do wish it wasn't as expensive as it is.....but....seems everything that is exceptional in life cost too much.

I tried these first as part of a sampler of Funky Monkey freeze dried fruit snacks and then purchased the single flavor set. They are similar to the Just Tomatoes brand fruit snack, Just Strawberries and Bananas, so if you like those, you will enjoy these.Funky Monkey snacks are all natural, with no sugar or oils or fats added. Just the natural sweetness of the bananas and of course, cinnamon. Each package is 110 calories, so it makes for a good portion controlled snack for weight watchers and a healthy choice for kids. The other Funky Monkey flavors are just as good. Highly recommended.

I found out about this product from a Redbook article written by Hungry Girl. I am always looking for ways to get my fruits and vegetables in and this snack fits the bill for me. One 1 oz bag has 3 servings of fruits, low calories and just fruit with no sugar. This is one of my new favorite snacks to have around when I'm looking for something sweet and crunchy. Yum Yum.

I bought these for my son, who loves bananas. He doesn't like them, and after trying them myself, I understand why. They are incredibly sweet, with a funky chemical taste. I've never tried acia straight up, but I don't think it tastes like this.I love the concept of this freeze-dried fruit, and we love the apple snacks. I think we'll stick to apple next time, or perhaps try the pear.

It hardly matters what Grandma thinks, my granddaughter LOVES this product. When I give it to her, she thinks it is tantamount to chocolate. She does not have to know it is good for her. In addition, I find dried fruit becomes soggy very shortly after opening here in damp Florida (even if resealable), so the small size is portable in my purse and she can eat the tiny bag in one sitting. This is a GREAT product.

I am totally addicted to the Funky Monkey!!! I started with the Jiva Lime, then the Purple Funk started growing on me, and now I crave it every day! I also love the Bananamon, but mostly when I have run out of Purple Funk! I love that it is organic and totally natural. I don't care if it does stick in my teeth, so does candy, and I'm MUCH better off with these than indulging my serious sweet tooth in less healthy ways! To me, these ARE like candy. :-D I am SO happy I found this brand, I just can't find a regular enough supplier so I guess I have to start ordering them online now. About the cost- come on, three servings of totally organic fruit for under two dollars and someone is complaining? As a former medical researcher, I understand the VALUE of such a quality, organic, nutritious, delicious, awesome product and I am quite obviously sold. ;-) P.S. I do not work for the company, or anywhere else for that matter- I am just a fan of the Funk!

very yummy and simple organic, raw, vegan snack... the only downside is that since these are freeze dried, they tend to get stuck in your teeth, but this snack is so sweet, its worth it :) the packages are small enough to fit in my purse to have in case i get hungry while out running errands.

I got a great deal on these when there was a coupon code out for them, but I regret my purchase. No one in my family likes them, so they're still sitting in my pantry. The flavor isn't great, and they stick in my teeth something awful. The Bananamon is the only flavor I've ever tried, but I'm not inclined to try any others.
