What yummy fruit product from Trader Joes is so sweet that even my 3 year old believes it is candy? The ‘soft and juicy’ dried mango, of course. This stuff is deliscious, but just like candy, is best in moderation. According to an employee at TJs, the mango is sliced, dried, and then soaked in a mixture of sugar and mango juice, and then re-dried. It gives the mango a wonderful texture. My son is convinced that it is candy and asks for this as a treat! Because of the sugar content (23g sugar per 1/4 cup), I try to limit our intake. But if you need a sweet treat, dried mangos from TJs are the way to go!
