Big Slice Apples - Review and Giveaway

I received products for review.  The opinions within this post are of my own and I was not influenced in any way.  Please do your own research before purchasing products or using services.  Your opinions and results may differ.

 

It's the time of year where pounds get packed on.  I know from experience!  Although I won't deny myself food from the "naughty" list I know that having edibles on hand that are "nice" help keep me in check.

 

I recently learned of a company, Big Slice, whose snacks are great to have on hand when you are running around during the holidays, and it’s also a great way to kick of a new year of healthy eating habits.

To sum it up, Big Slice is flavored cooked apples that come in a pouch.  Big Slice slowly cooks fresh slices of GMO-free, USA-grown apples until they transform into thick juicy chunks. Then they mix in pure whole fruits and superfoods, resulting in a delicious, healthy snack that provides protein, fiber, and energy. There are sixteen flavor combinations, and they are naturally gluten- and fat-free at all around 100 calories per pouch.

Who knew apples could be flavored so many ways?!  There's Chai, Lemon Berry, Cinnamon Candy, and so many more.  We were able to try 12 of the sixteen varieties, and enjoyed all the flavors.  My personal favorites were Cinnamon French Toast and Caramel. Coming from a pouch I wasn't sure, but the apple slices have a nice flavor and texture.  Each pouch has a notch to tear open and pour out the apple chunks.  I prefer to eat them from the pouch in a bowl as they are but Allyson has added Big Slice to her ice cream, toast, and waffles. 

Allyson, the older of our kids, has made a big lifestyle change commitment that started earlier this year.  She has become picky with what foods she will consume.  So I consider that Big Slice makes the grade since Allyson has happily been eating them and has plans to purchase more.

Big Slice can be found at retailers across the nation, including Target, Costco, Whole Foods Market, Publix, H-E-B, The Fresh Market, Cosentino’s Fine Foods, Hy-Vee, Price Chopper, Marsh, Busch’s, Fresh Food Market, Meijer, Vitacost, Straub’s, Dan’s Supermarket, Haggen Food & Pharmacy and Kowalski’s Markets. A portion of the purchase of every Big Slice pouch goes to the Sparkle Foundation, an organization that supports women and girls in need.
