Funky Monkey Doesn’t Monkey Around

A lot of dried fruit these days comes loaded with way too much sugar. Not Funky Monkey.

The fruit snack has no added sugar, preservatives, color, or flavors. They also are gluten-free, wheat-free, dairy-free, and are certified Kosher-Parve. They are manufactured in Brazil using tropical fruits that are freeze-dried.

The result is very crispy fruit pieces that are handy to tote along anywhere. Funky Monkey comes in four flavors: Bananamon (bananas and cinnamon), Jivealime (pineapple and lime juice), Purple Funk (banana and acai), and my favorite of Carnaval Mix (banana, pineapple, apple, papaya, raisins).

A 1-ounce bag (about $2.49) contains about 110-120 calories, and 0 to 1 grams of fat, depending on the flavor. Funky Monkey snacks are available at Whole Foods.
