Like a low carb snack unicorn!
These are delicious! I was expecting them to be tiny, chocolate chip size, based on the serving size, but they’re like the size of a quarter. Tastiest low carb snack ever! Can’t wait for you to come out with more flavors.

Very tasty snack -- but there is a discrepancy regarding the nutrition info
These are a really delicious snack. The bags are light because the snack is dehydrated so there is no water to add weight.If you pop one of the bites in your mouth and chew it, the texture is much like eating a dehydrated strawberry and one immediately notices the intense flavors of the strawberry and banana but there is also the creamy flavor of the yogurt -- it is really very nice. If one continues to chew, one's saliva rehydrates it and now there is this creamy texture which is quite pleasant. Personally, my favorite approach is to just suck on it and have it slowly transition.You should note that the nutrition info on my bag does not match the nutrition info in the picture on Amazon. The discrepancy is that my bag says that one bag is a single serving (see the picture) -- the Amazon picture suggests that one bag is three servings. The nutrition of a single bag is the same either way but, obviously, the counts per serving is quite different.For what it's worth, though I could easily eat a whole bag of these in one sitting, before I knew of the discrepancy, I was thinking that one bag was a pretty generous serving size, and one could easily split the bag into two or three portions to be eaten separately (the bags have self-seal closures and need no refrigeration).

Pricey, but really good, and they last a long time
I love these! They have a great texture...almost like meringue cookies. I like to pop a few in my mouth and kind of let them dissolve; they last a long time that way, and they taste exactly like a strawberry banana smoothie. They're quite sweet, but they don't contain additional sugar or sweeteners, and the whole bag (which lasts me about 3 days if I eat a handful every day as a snack) only has 75 calories. They're pricey enough that I would be inclined to give them 4 stars ($5/bag is a bit steep for a one-time snack), but since one bag lasts me so long it's really like 9 bags to me (so the cost per serving is lower). My dogs like them (don't worry, I only give them a couple)--so much so that they try to get them out of my hands while I'm eating them. I keep a bag on my desk for a midmorning snack (so I don't hit the higher cal snacks instead), and they give me a nice kick of energy without any excess sugar or caffeine.I rarely say this about snacks I've bought online, especially "healthy" ones, because I do have a tremendous bias toward chocolate and feel it is generally the only acceptable sweet indulgence, but these are yummy, and I will definitely order them again.

Unusual treat
These are a really expensive snack, so I was expecting something more. They are super light and airy like dense styrofoam. They melt in your mouth and feel like a warm thick shake. The bananas and strawberries flavor is intense and natural. They are not filling, but do provide a satisfying taste for something sweet and wholesome. The disk shape and smooth texture is really boring. The initial styrofoam sensation feels like you are putting debris in your mouth. It reminds me of the freeze dried marshmallows in Lucky Charms. At this price, I would rather just eat a banana or some strawberries which would be more filling, healthier and a lot less expensive.

Freeze dried smoothie that sticks to teeth
Tastes exactly like a strawberry-banana smoothie.Texture starts off like typical freeze dried stuff, with a nice airy crunch. However, after a few bites and getting partially rehydrated in your mouth, bits inevitably stick to your teeth. It gets a little annoying having to work those off with your tongue.Most pieces relatively intact, with roughly a tablespoon or so of powder in the bag.Current price of $5/bag feels a bit high for a normal snack, but isn’t too bad if used occasionally for something like camping or backpacking where ounces matter.

What a high cost for an unusable product
My mistake for spending so much on this .I assumed these would be biteable, chewable, worth the money for what seemed to be a 'state of the art' candy!Well....these little pieces melt in the mouth the moment you put one in. OR if you, instead, choose to bite into it, it goes straight into your teeth, sticking there like glue.I tossed them into the garbage

Delicious healthy treat, expensive though
These are really delicious. They melt in your mouth and are super addictive. They remind me of meringue. For the price, its on the pricey side, but as a healthy snack, I would recommend this.Personally, I feel like this snack might be best not as a snack by itself, but as a decoration on top of a cake, tart, or pastry, as it adds sweetness and a unique texture. It really is addictive, in the best way.Edit: You need to eat these within 48 hrs, the longer you hold off, the product changes its texture dramatically.

Healthy and tasty VS expensive and bad for the environment
PROS+ 3 servings per bag (each serving is approx 23 pieces)+ 25 calories per serving (or 75 calories per pack)+ Made with real fruit+ Tastes like real fruit (banana and strawberry!)+ No added sugar or chemicals+ A healthy and tasty snackCONS- $24 for 3 packs works out to $8 a pack. This is very expensive, especially considering you can eat an entire pack (less than 100 calories) in one sitting. Easily. I did it.- Also, an entire pack is about the same calories/sugar content as an apple... or a banana... or any piece of fruit. So, why not skip the excess costs and just... buy a piece of fruit? (Or make a strawberry and banana smoothie?)- These have a bit of a funny "melt in your mouth" texture which means they stick to your teeth. This is annoying, especially if you have braces, retainers, or dentures- The plastic packaging seems excessive given how much is in each bag. These packets won't ever break down and are highly unlikely to be recycled, even if you put them in the recycling. Did you know only 1-5% of all plastic that has ever been made has been recycled? Your 75 calorie snack's casing is going to be around for many, many more years than you or your kids are (likely hundreds, if not more). When you think about it that way, it's probably much better -- and cheaper -- to just eat a regular ol' banana.

I actually really enjoyed these!
So I decided to try these because I wanted to try something that could replace candy for me. Some times I crave candy but I have been trying hard to stay away from sweets (at least for the next few months) and saw these. Honestly I don't usually get food products from Amazon because I prefer to see what I am getting before getting it. But I surprising really enjoyed these! I shared a bag with my mom who also is staying away from sweets! There is only 12grams of sugar in the whole bag, no added sugar and no sugar alcohols! This was important to me because a lot of times things will say no sugar but have quite a bit of sugar alcohol in it and your body is still going to treat it as sugar! I'm also aware that there is sugar in most things and you can't really get away from sugar 100% but the sugar in this product is all from the fruit used. It doesn't smell that great in my opinion but it taste great, and it was still sweet. I would say though that it does get stuff in your teeth when you chew which is kinda annoying but not a deal breaker. I also think it is kinda pricy. You get three bags which is lovely but if you break down the cost each bag is a little over $8 CAD. I personally enjoyed them enough that I will be getting more when these ones are finished. I hope they come out with more flavours soon! Maybe a berry flavour?

Absolutely delicious!!
I was awestruck how amazing delicious this was. Tastes exactly like a strawberry banana yogurt smoothie. It is scary how quickly the content of the bag disappeared.These little smoothie pellets are like foamy bits of a smoothie that got freeze dried. They melt in your mouth and if you prefer chewing them, they are nice and crunchy (though they do stick to your teeth).What's really nice is how great it tastes and there is no added sugar nor sweetener. So it is really the equivalent to having a smoothie.The only downside is the price. Even compared to smoothies you buy in shops, these end up similarly priced or more expensive despite being a bit less to eat. However, the portability of this product is leaps and bounds better than a regular smoothie so that is the tradeoff! Hoping there would eventually be an option to buy it in bulk (or larger quantities) so that the price per bag would be cheaper.I'm excited to see what other flavors Simply Gum (the brand) will bring out, and seeing how delicious this one is, I have zero doubt whatever they bring out will be just as enjoyable!
