Brother's All Natural Crisps

When I was contacted to try and review some flavors of the Brother's All Natural Fruit Crisps and try their new Potato Crisps, I jumped at the chance.  We've been big fans of the Pear Crisps for a while now.

The crisps come in self contained snack bags making it easy for this working mom on the go to dole out a healthy snack.  With zero fat and barely any calories, I never have to worry about spoiling dinner when I had these out to my family.  My son loves them - but so do the rest of us.

We were sent four bags of snacks - Apple Crisps, Peach Crisps, and two flavors of Potato Crisps.  My son did not like the potato crisps and I was thrilled.  It meant more for me.  The potato crisps have a similar texture to baked Lays - but with a ton more flavor and zero fat.  I loved them to satisfy my "salty" craving.

Apple Crisps were a hit with the whole fam - we polished off the bag in about zero point two three seconds.  Unfortunately, the Peach Crisps didn't pack enough flavor for us.  The crisps were very bland tasting, unlike other crisps we have tried.  It is a new flavor for Brother's All Natural and I hope they go back to the drawing board to get more peachy-ness in those peaches. 

Overall, the snacks are wonderful.  The are no fat, low calories, freeze dried, real fruit (or potato) snacks.  The only thing better would be eating the real deal - a piece of fresh fruit.  But for any working mother driving to and fro all over town, these snack bags have a lot less mess.  And I don't have to worry about an apple going rotten in the heat of a summer day.

I hope they start coming out with Organic options too!

Our family had the pleasure of sampling the Apple Crisps on a visit to Disneyland last Oct. We were so pleased with the taste, that I did an online search to find the source of these snacks. I was thrilled to locate them on the Brothers All Natural web site, and ordered four cases!

When I saw that they made potato crisps as well, I ordered two cases of them as well. I am sorry to report that these potato snacks were a huge disappointment! Absolutely vile taste! I tried them out on several members of our family visiting for Christmas, and without prompting or giving any hint of my feelings, they all, without exception, gave these potato crisps and absolute THUMBS DOWN!!

We definitely will not be ordering these items again! Our favorite is still the apple crisps and we will continue to have them on hand. We felt that the peach & pear snacks didn't have enough flavor...not even a hint of what they were supposed to represent. So, apple it is!
