My local Trader Joe's store had a big display of this new product right inside the front door--the first thing a customer would see. My knee-jerk reaction was, "Well, that's a slam-dunk winner." Honeycrisps are my favorite apples, and I like dried fruit generally. What's not to like?
Plenty, as it turned out. Nearly all of the contents of my bag were small fragments, not apple slices. And the drying is so extreme that it left those fragments hard and brittle.
There is a solid honeycrisp flavor, but the unhappy texture and size of the small, broken pieces far outweighed that niceness.
Will I buy it again?
No. For dried apples, the New Zealand Sweet Apple Rings are the ones to get.
