Hannah's Hot Pick
Fruitabu

I am always hard pressed to find anything moderately healthy in the grocery store snack aisles. My eyes scan the shelves and all I ever see are a mixture of the words, "corn syrup and food dye." That's one reason why I was so elated to stumble across Fruitabu. This fruit snack is one of the rare ones that actually contain fruit! As a matter of fact, that's all it is--dehydrated fruit! It even comes in strips that roll up.

They also have this really cool product called "smooshed fruit." At first, my kids were a little puzzled by it, because it's just what it say it is--smooshed fruit. It comes in a plastic pouch that you snip in the corner. We stuck it in the freezer and my kids loved it. It's kind of like a fruit slushee that's really thick and concentrated. I knew I had stumbled upon something good when my son opened the freezer and shouted, "Who took the last smooshed thing?!"

It's a keeper--healthy, funky, with definite kid appeal. Now I just hope the other kids on the soccer team feel the same way.
