Funky Monkey Snacks Review

It’s hard enough to get kids to eat the daily recommended servings of their fruits and vegetables, especially if you have a picky eater like I do. My 4 year old could literally live off of chicken nuggets and hot dogs if I let him. I’m constantly trying to get him to try new things that are (unbeknownst to him) healthy, especially snacks because he loves to graze instead of eat big meals.

Funky Monkey Snacks are dried fruit snacks that have 3 servings of fruit in every ounce. The snacks are also all natural fruit and a raw vegan food with no sugar added. Want more good news for those of you that may have children sensitive to certain food ingredients? They’re also gluten-free, wheat-free and dairy-free. I haven’t run across many snacks in the stores I shop at that could make that claim, so of course this alone piqued my interest.

Funky Monkey Snacks come in 6 fruity flavors and we were sent 4 packs to try out, which included the following flavors: Bananamon (banana and cinnamon), Carnaval Mix (banana, pineapple, apple, papaya and raisins), Jivealime (pineapple and lime juice) and Purple Funk (banana and acai berries). Unfortunately, as with many foods, my son wasn’t too keen on anything except picking the pineapples out of the Carnaval Mix. But, those few pieces of pineapple were tops with him. I completely enjoyed the rest of the Carnaval Mix and the Jivealime, because I love limes. I could definitely see buying a few bags of this regularly as a snack for myself.
