What the AI looks for in Dried Apples
- Texture
- Decide between chewy rings, which are air-dried, and crisp chips, which are baked, fried or freeze-dried. Chewy rings are better for baking and trail mix, while chips are a snack replacement for potato chips.
- Frying and oil
- Check that oil is not listed in the ingredients if you want plain fruit. Some apple chips are fried, which adds fat and calories.
- Sulfites
- Pale, white apple rings are usually sulfured; check the label if you are sensitive. Unsulfured apples brown but avoid the additive.
Brands that matter
- Bare: Baked apple chips, plain and flavored.
- Crispy Green: Freeze-dried apple in portion packs.
What to avoid
- Cinnamon or caramel apple chips when you want no added sugar.
