Food Feature ~ Prunes

Although people usually don't think of prunes as a tasty treat, they actually are good for you and taste good too.

Prunes have antioxidants, fiber, and are good for your digestive tract.  You can buy them in a package like this, where they come in individual packs.

A bag like this contains 8 individual packs of prunes. Usually three prunes come in one pack.

I personally like these individual packs because they are a convenient snack to grab on the go.

There are also "Sunsweet Ones," which is a large package of individually wrapped prunes. (One prune = one wrapper) Just like a piece of candy--a Hershey Kiss for example.

If you have never tasted a prune, I highly recommend that you do. 
A prune has a VERY sweet taste to it.
