Applemon™, MangOJ™ and Pink Pineapple™ Are Latest Additions To Popular Lineup of All Natural, Freeze-Dried Fruit Snacks Funky Monkey™ Snacks, makers of Fruit that Crunches!®, today announced the addition of three new flavors to its family of all natural, 100% real fruit snacks: · Applemon™ (freeze-dried apple and organic cinnamon), · MangOJ™ (freeze-dried mango and orange juice), and · Pink Pineapple™ (freeze-dried organic pineapple and guava) The trio—the first new flavors since Funky Monkey Snacks debuted two years ago— complement Funky Monkey Snacks’ existing varieties: Bananamon®, Carnaval Mix™, JiveALime® and Purple Funk®.

Like all Funky Monkey Snacks, Applemon, MangOJ and Pink Pineapple are made using a proprietary freeze-drying process on whole slices and large pieces of fruit. This exclusive process, not used on any other snack product in the U.S., removes 97 percent of the moisture content. All that is left are crisp, crunchy and 100% all fruit snacks that are nutritionally equivalent to their fresh counterparts.

“Funky Monkey is all about delicious, interesting flavors that bring fruit and snacking to a new level of fun and healthy eating,” said Matt Herzog, president of Funky Monkey Snacks. “These three new combinations meet our high standards for fresh, appealing and exciting flavors that people will immediately enjoy.”

Funky Monkey Snacks are a more nutritious and natural alternative to dried fruit, which does not preserve all the nutrients of fresh fruit, or fruit snacks that can contain added sugars, colors and preservatives. Each one ounce bag of Funky Monkey Snacks contains three servings of fruit; what’s more, new flavor Pink Pineapple contains 100% of the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of Vitamin C, while MangOJ has 30% RDA for Vitamin C and 70% RDA for Vitamin A. All seven Funky Monkey flavors are ideal for both kids and adults who are looking for a healthy alternative to chips or candy.
