Freeze Dried Strawberries

"Trader Joe’s Freeze Dried Strawberries are strawberry slices that have undergone a special freeze-drying process so they remain extremely flavorful, but unlike so many conventionally dried berries, they’re free of added sugar and they pack a bit of a crunch. They’re great for snacking anytime – we’ve discovered that kids, especially, find them not only delicious but fascinating as well. Lest you think they’re only for kids, we’ll go on record as grown-up fans of these crunchy little berries – they’re especially delightful added to cereals for a little extra flavor and crunch. Of course, given their history as a backpacking staple, they’re perfectly at home on the trail, as part of a mix or on their own. Trader Joe’s Freeze Dried Strawberries come in a 1.2 ounce resealable bag – that may not sound like much, but it takes ten times that amount (12 ounces) of fresh, ripe strawberries to produce this much freeze dried fruit. We recommend that you keep the bag tightly sealed after opening to preserve the crunch, though in the spirit of full disclosure, we’ll admit they don’t usually last long enough that this ever becomes an issue."
