Every time my family travels we visit the store beforehand in search of kid-friendly travel snacks. When Stretch Island Fruit Company recently approached me about their current promotion and giveaway my interest was piqued and I asked for more information. I was sent a handful of samples and, much to surprise, I realized I was already familiar with the product. My kids love these snacks! We purchased these at the health food store we used to frequent in Arizona and we have even used them on our travels!
While I don’t believe any product can substitute for a real piece of fresh fruit, I let my children enjoy these snacks, especially when we are on the road or in the sky, because they have all-natural ingredients, with 99 percent real fruit and are the equivalent to 1/2 a fruit serving – but mostly because they don’t bruise in my carry-on bag. Compare them to other similar products and you will see there is no comparison – there’s no corn syrup in these babies!
Flavors include Autumn Apple, Abundant Apricot, Harvest Grape, Mango Sunrise, Orchard Cherry, Ripened Raspberry, and Summer Strawberry.
If you’re flying on Continental Airlines this summer you may get the opportunity to try them as the company is passing 250,000 to passengers. If you’re missing out on this inflight promotion, here’s another way to try the these tasty treats for free: Stretch Island Fruit Company is offering a prize to two of our readers the chance to win 5 free boxes (via coupons)!

My son would love this – he isn’t a chocolate eater and he’s allergic to nuts, so he always goes for the fruity stuff. Orchard Cherry would probably be his top choice.
I would like to try the ripened raspberry flavor – yum! : )
I love these things! They are the healthier alternative for fruit by the foot. Makes me feel like a little kid again when I munch on those. I have never tried the mango flavor before, so I guess I would go with the mango sunrise.
