Vegan Food Review: Trader Joe's Fruit Frenzy Bars

Apr 10, 2011 21:57

So, there's a lot more vegan food readily available in the last few years. I've decided that when I get a new vegan food I haven't tried before, I should talk about it here.

So....Trader Joe's Fruit Frenzy Bars.

TJ's other fruit popsicles aren't vegan, but these are. I try to buy vegan stuff from TJ's in part because they are really good about labeling what is and isn't vegan, and finding out if something not labelled vegan actually is or is not, and why.

These are largish fruit-flavored popsicles which have three flavors per pop. When I say "fruit flavor," I really mean "these were made with real fruit." For instance, in the top part of the pop, which is blackberry flavored, you can taste the blackberry seeds. The lemon part has actual pieces of pulp in it.

These are really tasty, though a bit sweet for my taste. They have a nice icy texture without being too hard or too soft to really bite into. The top is blackberry, the middle part lemon (though not nearly sour enough for me; it tastes to me more like orange), and the bottom strawberry. Quite good. If I were making Florey Punch, I would get a bunch of these and use them to cool it off; it would probably melt beautifully into the punch bowl.

There's 5 per box.

Rating: Yum! Definitely worth buying. Delicious and full of vitamins, and not too calorie-tastic. If you're a fan of cold desserts and fruit popsicles like me, I would really recommend these especially.
