Everyone has enjoyed at least one pouch of fruit snacks in their life. Whether it be fruit roll-ups, fruit wrinkles, or one of the shameless promotional types with the little chewy faces of the Shrek characters on them.

I have always loved fruit snacks. They're like candy, but as a kid, I could get away with easting them after school of before supper.

Strawberry Fruit Roll-ups are pretty tasty. Definitely my favorite of the roll-up style variety.

Further down the line of fruit snack hierarchy, we have the nameless fruit snacks, which usually appear as little nubs of fruity flavor.

And lastly, we have the character or object based fruit snack. Examples: Shark Bites, the shark shaped fruit snack.

Sadly, while the charcter/object shaped snacks are fun to look at and come in a fancy box which features you're favorite pokemon, they are of very poor quality, and the flavor is mainly a result of the food coloring they contain.


But there is a new kid on the block in the world of fruit snacks. One who is going to blow away the competition, and redefine our notions of what a fruit snack is, and can be.

I speak of course, or Froot Loops Twistables.

Yes, Froot Loops Twistables are the latest and greatest evolution of the snacking scene. A brain child of the Kellogs company, froot loops twistables feature three different flavors in the form of three strings of fruit-snack twirled together. Much like the infamous twizzlers which one can peel apart.

This allows the user to experience a combination of flavor sensations. But the combinations or the novelty are not what makes this a great fruit snack. It is the texture and the flavor which have elevated this snack to godly heights. Something about the way your mouth breaks down the twisted spiral of flavorful fruity goo makes one come back for more again and again.

I can only eat a couple of fruit roll-ups in a row. But I just finished of my 5th Froot Loops Twistable in a row. If you will excuse me, I need to go downstairs and get some more.



Happy Chewing!

I don't like them fruit snacks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!My kids love them, I think they are nasty!!!!!!!!! lol!!!!!!!!

They taste good to me!

woohoo! i just noticed we have new smileys!!! yay!

anyway, now, about fruit snacks...

my mom decided that shoving fruit snacks and all things healthy down our throats everyday was a good idea! well, lol, of course...

anyway, so therefore, fruit stuff grew on me!! i used to buy guava roll everyday at school!!

and since the end of august this year, i decided that eating VERY HEALTHILY was the best way to go...for various reasons that i shall not discuss

but now i buy fruit stuff all the time!! dried peaches, 3 packets every week is a must...along with fresh fruit of course...and fruit rolls (probably what you guys call roll ups) and...ya, stuff like that...

now i love fruit and all things healthy!!! hooray!!!

the fruit snacks are the only good thing in the vending machines at school. besides the poptarts!
the ones i like are the Welch's strawberry kind I must have a bag each day after lunch or the rest of my day stinks

I like fruity candy better than chocolate. Since they are more like candy, I love them. I'd rather have real fruit with whipped cream though...

I was always a big fan of fuzzy peaches, do they count?

I just love good old roll-ups!

i'd have to say banana smoothies

I like the Welch's kind--oh, and dried fruit, too.

Back in the mid 90's there was a brand of "eatable" planes, i loved them... From Fruit Punch B-52 to BlueBerry F-15. Big Flying machines, mix that with a fruity chimical twist and...Waaamo! you get the greatest thing is cristal cola!

i make apricot balls (only during chrissy time tho) and they go down pretty well, and fast too... yummo

putting pineapple or watermelon in the freezer during summer is great.. my fav tho is just plain ol' mango.. the best 'bathtub' food in the whole of the word *drools*

Scooby Doo fruit snacks were by far the worst. My favorites, though, are the Blue's Clues ones. I groove to these.

those sour belts are incredibly good, along with sour gummy worms and sour patch kids, and fruit roll ups.

Man they sound cool!

Opal Fruits! 4 me!

I like the grapes...oranges, man they all just taste so chewy and sweet .

I'm gonna go to Albertsons and buy some now...
