7D Dried Mangoes

907 days ago

Wuhahaha, yet another dried fruit review. Seems that once I get hooked on something, I can’t stop myself. Anyway, not to worry, this snack isn’t that harmful as compared to other snacks I am hooked on. In fact, this one gives you a lot of fiber, which is getting more important since our diets tend  to be lacking in fiber. Of course, it is never good to overeat, so remember to limit yourself. I at most eat about one pack of dried fruits per day. Dried fruits have a high concentration of sugar in them and for most dried fruits, they add sugar as a sweetener and as a preservative. Furthermore, some of the dried fruits do contain preservatives. Not something which we would like to consume too much of.

As usual, I got this o offer. 2 packs some more. Man, I need to tell you this definitely taste heavenly. However, it is interesting that some people find the taste of mango disgusting. They tell me it taste like medicine. But to me, it smells aromatic and it taste great. Well, one man’s meat is another man’s poison I guess. If you are into mango, I would highly recommend dried mangoes as an alternative. Saves you time from cutting up the mango too. Don’t you just hate slicing mangoes? I know I do. And most people I know (Singaporeans) don’t know how to handle a knife.

The 7D dried mangoes. This brand is probably the king among dried mangoes manufacturers.

Check it out, they even won awards like this VIII International Europe Awardee For Quality Paris thingy. Cool.

200g of dried mango! That is a lot of fiber. Get ready for some bowel cleaning the next morning. And drink plenty of water to help it along. It is important to add more fiber to our diets because we need to clear waste efficiently from our bodies. Fiber helps our body do that. You don’t want all those unwanted waste to remain in your body, it can cause a lot of problems, especially in the long run.

Okay, the back of the pack.

They believe in superior product quality. It is no wonder 7D Dried Mangoes has become the Philippines’ favorite. It all begins with the selection of the choicest fresh mangoes ripened enough for you that rich mango flavour and excellent aroma. The fruits are naturally processed with the finest cane sugar for that appealing sweet-sour taste that makes 7D mango distinctive. And finally the fruits are dried just enough to attain the chewiness that you desire and the great mango flavor you savor bite after bite…

An exotic and nutritious treat for everyone. An ideal ready to eat snack. Can be used as attractive topping and filling to make dessert, pies, tarts and cakes, or made as garnish for platter foods and savories. That is so cool. For, I just eat them straight from the pack. Why not? It is really very tasty.

Some nutritional facts for you.

The ingredients are mangoes, sugar and sodium metabisulfite. Yes, that is preservatives. I have yet to find a dried mango brand which does not have any preservatives. Perhaps it is due to the way mangoes are proceed that they still need to add a certain amount of preservatives into the mango to maintain freshness? Well…..
