Karen's NaturalsJust Strawberries, 1.5 Ounce Pouch, All Natural Freeze Dried Strawberries, Vegan, Gluten Free, Healthy Fruit Snacks with No Additives, No Preservatives, No Added Sugar

I got these to put in frosting, as freeze-dried fruit is not easy to find in my local stores. They're slightly pricier than getting anything similar in stores, but for the sake of convenience this is a fairly decent deal. I really like that it has no preservatives or anything else, and although I've never cared for eating freeze dried fruit, my daughter has been eating them since babyhood & loves it. There was a bit of powder in the bottom of the bag, but since I intended to pulverize them anyway that was just an added bonus, or it would've gone great in my smoothies. I mainly use it in baking, and the flavor is fantastic-- I made a strawberry frosting with these & everyone commented on how fresh the berry flavor was. I'm quite pleased with this and will probably be stocking up on other berries in this brand for a variety in flavor & colors. It's the only way I incorporate fruit in frosting now, as it's so much easier than having to boil down fruit or deal with frosting being too liquid, etc.-- not to mention that it's a great way to color your food naturally.

Hey, these are good!Ok, I wasn't terribly surprised by how good these are: I love freeze-dried fruit, I love blueberries, and I've never detected an "off" taste in Just Tomatoes products. Some freeze-dried fruit smells and tastes like a factory for some reason, and seems to be a brand-specific problem.These are nicely crunchy and nicely flavorful, but have a tamer flavor than some other dried food. They taste a little cooked: like homemade blueberry jam, actually, which is what I pretended I was eating.There are only 2 servings in the nice big pouch, even though it felt more like 8. I love that it's hard to over-indulge on these.They stain my fingers! I was surprised that berries without juice can do that, but these do!They're a little smaller than Kix pieces. I did get one bad or burnt one in the whole bag (I didn't spit it out to check, sorry!), but unless I find more in subsequent orders, I wouldn't worry about it too much.Hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

My 3 year olds eat these like potato chips! I do limit their quantity or this big bag would be gone in 20 min. Sometimes they have them for snacks or in their cereal. My husband and I love them as well.Freeze dried is the way to go! They retain the most intense flavoring and they are light, crispy and airy. I've enjoyed Just Tomatoes products for years but really appreciate the wholesomeness on another level now that I'm a mom. I love knowing what goes into my little ones bodies is good for them.Now, if their was a way to make these a little more cost effective we'd consume a lot more than we do!

Any time I have bought these from a store, they have been amazing - fresh, crisp, deep red color. I was not satisfied with this order however - tasteless, brown, and stale. Expiration date was fine (good until 2018). But just not the quality I was expecting (maybe because of the humidity in shipping - even though it was sealed)?

Excellent taste/freshness. Unfortunately 2 of 2 bags thus far have a huge amount of powdered "waste"- literally dust of strawberries. I ended up using it mixed in with strawberries and cream instant oatmeal and it worked well, otherwise I'd have been sad that a heaping two cupped hand- ful of this was otherwise unusable.

Late home? Unexpected guests? FROZEN assets? Just vegetables of all sorts and even fruit: tomatoes, corn, peas! Strawberries and bananas! I was very wary of trying JUST whatever products. I Purchased the mixed vegetables they came in a beautiful green bag resealable easy to open and I just put my glass Chinese soup scoop in it. Whenever I had something that would benefit from additional colorful vegetables I JUST put a scoop or two into the pot and wow! The dried vegetables and fruit are JUST delicious! My mouthwatering dishes just became more so! I was very interested in trying the other products and I am so very peased! I mean pleased. I add dried corn to chili and corn bread and chowders. Mixed veg to soups, rice and pot roast. Go ahead and try it. If Karen's in your kitchen you can bet the family is dining IN!

I can't think of a healthier, better tasting quick snack. Keep in mind it's freeze dried, not dehydrated, so it has a wonderful crispy, almost crunchy texture. The whole family loves this and it's one snack I really feel good about my kids munching on...although I end up usually finishing the bag myself! These are also great mixed in with smoothies, cereal, yogurt and ice cream toppings and other recipes. The rest of the Just Tomatoes fruits are just as delicious. Try 'em out!***Next order of this was horribly stale and outdated. Absolutely disgusting.

Dreaming of fresh juicy strawberries we had in Israel in my childhood, in Australia 30 years ago and in Germay 12 years ago. In the Caribbean, we only get US or Chile imports that are mostly tasteless, unripe and gassed to look red and often moldy.So I got this as imagery looked so yummy made me drool. Well, in my thoughts.Alas, in spite of a lovely sounding crunch as you chew it, it is one of those airy-not-there experiences. My first experience with freeze-dried fruit. And like imported fresh produce it has a very slight hint of a strawberry taste.If you eat lots of it in one go you get a bit more taste on the tongue but still not quenching my lost hopes for real strong strawberry experience. Guess I'll need to stick to flavor-rich chewy goji berries.
