It’s a little known fact (or a well known fact, for obsessive snackers like me) that fresh apples pose a serious problem as an office munchie. One: They’re juicy, meaning sticky hands and thus, sticky keys. Two: They leave you one handed. Three: The “lemon juice on apple slices” trick is great if you don’t mind a serious lemon kick to your fruit, and brown slices, no matter how harmless, are just plain unappealing.
Enter Horizon’s Apple Clusters. These are little globes of crunchy apple heaven: dried apple bits that are airy and crisp, not gummy, no added sugar, and a touch of cinnamon. I loved that these weren’t overly sweet (easy to do when it’s an apple product rather than the fruit itself). The four ingredients–apples, apple juice, apple fiber, and cinnamon–are organic. Each individually portioned pouch (4 to a box) is plenty for a serving, and just 60 calories. And (big bonus here) no sticky fingers! I bet astronauts would love these little guys. Until NASA gets the memo, I’ll keep a few packs at my desk and in my car.
Horizon Apple Clusters are one of 24 snacks we awarded a Taste Test Award. The clusters are available at grocery stores nationwide now. Use Horizon’s Product Locator to find a store nearest you. See all the winners–and find out if your favorite brands are among them–in our 2015 Taste Test Awards.
