fruit-flavored snacks
Fruit-flavored snacks are chewy, sweet treats that mimic the taste of various fruits. They are often made from a combination of sugar, corn syrup, and artificial or natural flavors. These snacks come in various shapes and sizes, appealing to both children and adults. Common varieties include gummy candies, fruit leathers, and jelly-like bites.
Many fruit-flavored snacks are marketed as a fun and convenient way to enjoy fruit flavors without the actual fruit. While they may contain some fruit juice or puree, they often lack the nutritional benefits of whole fruits, such as vitamins and fiber.
