Think of Trader Joe's Gone Bananas. Now substitute strawberries for the banana slices, and you've got this.
Even though I generally like strawberries more than bananas, I prefer the original to this. Maybe it's the relative novelty of the banana/chocolate combination, compared to the commonplace strawberry/chocolate match-up. Or maybe it's how the banana slices seem pleasantly cold but not really frozen, whereas these strawberries have a definite sense of ice crystals throughout.
Anyway, they're really good, and I could eat a ton of them. But they're short of the Top Ten amazingness of their banana brethren. Note also that they're more expensive--$2.29 for 150g versus $1.99 (I think) for 227g.
Will I buy it again?
Yes.
I LOVED these!!! Then again, i am anti-banana, so i am immune to the appeal of the banana version. Generally i’m not a fan of frozen fruit because the texture is destroyed but with the thinner slice and enough chocolate it’s like a chocolatey fruit sorbet bite.
ReplyDeleteConsidering my box disappeared within 24hrs of purchasing i will certainly buy again as a tasty treat that satisfies my sweet tooth.

I love these!! Even better if they sit at room temp a few minutes before eating so the inner berry softens a little, tastes like a chocolatey bite of sorbet. I’m anti-banana so these make me very happy :)) These will certainly be a regular purchase all summer.
ReplyDelete(Why do the strawberries come from thailand...? There’s plenty of them grown in the US so that seems odd)
