Dole Packaged Foods, LLC unveiled a better-for-you snack: Good Crunch™, a nutritious, sustainably-made dried fruit snack with a crunch. The innovative product uses a gentle dehydration process that locks in fresh fruit flavor and preserves nutrients for a light, airy and healthy snack.
Good Crunch was designed with wellness in mind, made using all-natural, non-GMO fruits and no artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, or added sugar or oil. A light and poppable fruit bite, Good Crunch is an exciting alternative to traditional crunchy snacks like potato chips and offers adults and kids a truly sensorial experience bursting with flavor, crunch, and nutrition in three varieties:
- Pineapple Bites Original – sweet and tangy made with only pineapple providing essential nutrients like fiber and manganese for good health
- Pineapple Bites with Chili – only pineapple and chili seasoning for a sweet, tangy and mildly spicy flavor
- Banana Bites Original – made using only bananas to create a sweet and tasty snack that is a good source of potassium
Good Crunch is another step in the company's journey toward achieving the Dole Promise as a snack focused on good nutrition with zero added sugars. It is also sustainably made. Solar energy is used to power the unique multi-step drying process which lowers CO2 contribution to the air, while unused pieces of fruit are upcycled into organic fertilizers to reduce food waste. A variety of bananas are used including "imperfect" ones that would've otherwise been thrown away. Dole empowers farmers with sustainable techniques and training to improve their farms. Good Crunch makes snacktime a fun, healthier experience, benefiting people and the planet.
The product comes in 1.4oz and 2.5oz resealable pouches and retails for a SRP of $3.99. Good Crunch is currently available online at Amazon.com and Hannaford.com, as well as in most Hannaford stores.
