Holiday Spectacular Day 10: Sunsweet Ones Review and Giveaway

DH once bought a big bag of prunes after reading about how they're a “superfood,” with lots of health benefits. One day, hesitantly, I tried one. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it, and ever since I often snack on them! Thanks to the Family Review Network, I received even more prunes from Sunsweet for the entire family to enjoy!

Prunes are an ANTIOXIDANT POWERHOUSE. It’s the highest antioxidant fruit, ranking ninth among the top twenty antioxidant rich foods...And there is more… HIGH FIBER, LOW GLYCEMIC INDEX, HIGH MALIC ACID, NO SUCROSE, NO ADDITIVES, MOISTURE RETENTION, FAT REPLACEMENT and FLAVOR, FLAVOR, FLAVOR.

We were fortunate to receive a container of
Sunsweet Ones-Individually Wrapped Prunes (ARV $2.35), as well as a 60-calorie pack of Pitted Prunes (ARV $2.35/8 pack). I already knew I would enjoy the prunes, but would Little Music Man?

He sure did! As soon as he ate one, he asked for another!

Now when Little Music Man comes home from school and asks for his afternoon snack, I can give him some
Sunsweet Ones and I can enjoy some with him!

I can keep also keep some handy in my purse for whenever we're out and one of us is craving a snack.

Prunes are healthy, nutritious, and yummy, and I'm sure the Sunsweet Ones will be gone quickly in our home!

Shop: You can purchase Sunsweet Ones and other Sunsweet products on the Sunsweet Online Store, or at various other retailers online and nationwide.

Win: Five lucky winners will receive a Sunsweet reusable shopping bag and a Sunsweet VIP Coupon, which is good for ANY Sunsweet product up to $5.50 in value.
