Do You think you know Mangoes? Certainly not in SACfruits Mango Energy Bites!!
Do you think you know mangoes? Think again! SACfruits Mango Energy Bites are one-biters to take you to the most paradisaic tropical beach and back in every bite. Close your eyes and feel the sand below your feet; that’s what these healthy, flavorful and vibrant bites bring to the table. We’re talking about all-natural, non-GMO, gluten-free snacks made with real mango slices with no sweeteners or preservatives. Just pure natural fruit you can carry around, enjoy while binge-watching movies or gift to a loved one.
Do processed fruits actually have more sugar than fresh fruit?
Processed fruits, like freeze-dried or unsweetened dried fruits, get a bad rap for allegedly being quite the sugar bomb, but I would like to put that rumor to rest.
The 411 on Freeze Dried Fruits: Healthy or Not? Hmmm
I have always referred to fruit as nature’s candy: it’s delicious, nutritious, and sweetened with all-natural sugars. Truly, natural is the word and that is why I constantly find ways to infuse natural fruits in many recipes.
Mangoes, Mangoes, Oh My Mangoes…Mother Natures’ Candy
Mangoes, Mangoes, Oh My Mangoes…Mother Natures’ Candy
They are simply pineapples…avec chocolat
Eating fruits are always recommended after every meal. In some cultures like the French, you have fruits or/and salads before the meal.
SACfruits All Natural Fruit Bites Product Review
You’ll Want to Pull Up a Chair and Read This!
Have you heard about SACfruits All Natural Fruit Bites with Superfoods Yes? You lucky food-loving fella!
No? Well, do I have great news for you!
SACfruits All Natural superfood energy Fruit Bites are these tasty little one-, two-, maybe three-bite vegan, gluten-free, and raw nibbles of delicious snacking. They come in two perfectly paired, palette-pleasing flavors: Mango-coconut-moringa (oh, how I love anything with coconuts in them), and fruity nutty granola with flaxseeds, chia seeds and hemp (what’s not to love when there’s fruit and nuts, right?). There’s just something really extraordinary about SACfruits for me. Don’t get me wrong though, I’d devour all of the flavors without blinking an eye. Just saying. I love these little bites for other reasons as well. (I’m so excited to share these SACfruits with you that I just cannot contain myself. I love sharing products with you – especially when they get me this charged up! Whew! Deep breath!)
• All flavors are gluten-free, vegan, and raw (I know I mentioned this above but it’s worth repeating.) • They are small, different fun-shapes, making them very kid friendly and prefect for little hands and little appetites. • They are bite-size so you can grab one or two to keep portion control in check. Plus this way we can nibble throughout the day – yay! • Each flavor has a clearly defined, full flavor profile without being over-the-top bold. • The sweetness is kept in check. No sugar overload here, yet still sweet enough that they’re tasty to those who perhaps don’t watch the sugar intake as much,but are wanting to do something a bit better for their bodies. • They hold together very well – no crumbling. This is an extra bonus for lunch-packing points. Their texture is more dense than a brownie, but still tender enough to sink your teeth into. • Nothing gets stuck in your teeth, as happens with some wholesome snacks. Sounds silly to put that in a product review but it matters to me. Thought it might to you too. • Five simple ingredients in each variety. Healthy, pronounceable, recognizable ingredients. Depending on your flavor choice, you might find dried fruit, dried coconut, dates, nuts, moringa powder, flaxseeds, and/or oats. If some of these ingredients aren’t on your safe-food list, be sure to check the labels for each one since they vary. • There are 10-13 pieces of energy bites in each package, each piece containing 40 calories (5 from fat), 0 trans or saturated fat, 0 cholesterol and sodium, 8g total carbs, less than one gram fiber, and 0 protein. I like those numbers. Might I suggest pairing them with a perfect snack partner of some raw nuts, if you just gotta have some protein too? • SACfruits need to be kept refrigerated for extended freshness – If you want to enjoy them cold, pack them in a lunchbox with a coldpak or wrap them in foil the night before, store them in the freezer, then toss them into your kiddo’s (or your) lunchbox and by lunchtime they’ll be right as rain for you to enjoy. They should be fine without being chilled from morning to lunchtime too.
There, I’ve given you TEN reasons or serving suggestions why SACfruits energy bites fit into the healthy gluten-free, dairy-free snacks category (or healthy gluten-free, vegan snacks category if that’s your safe food journey) and should be on your next grocery list. There’s only been one downside to having them in my fridge until now … and really, it’s my problem, not yours … I had to wait until I wrote this review and took photos to polish off these yummy bites. After the fact, I found that the image provided by GPF does far more justice to SACfruits than my photos. And I could have been snacking this whole time … ugh! If you enjoy them half as much as I do, you’ll be hooked!

What’s With The Pineapple?!!
The generic name of pineapple “Ananas” was derived from an Indian name, “Nana”, meaning fragrance. The first explorers thought the fruit
