i love dried cranberries. i can eat them from the bag, or mixed with chocolate chips :pig: i have a great recipie for double chocolate cookies with them. mmmm mom2girls
 
I'm very partial to dried apricots, but I also like dried bananas now and then - I prefer them to fresh bananas. Just once in a blue moon I'll buy a dried mix with pawpaw, apple, mango etc in it. I've tried dried cranberries - can't really take to them. And I can't stand dried grapes or currants in any form! (Little dead black flies!) I never use dried fruits for cooking. They're just snacks for me.
 
if you haven't tried dried pineapple, do yourself a favor and get a hold of some. it's like eating candy, but with the benefits of fiber. so it's like geriatric candy.

remember that most commercially dried fruit has preservatives on them, often a sulphur compound, so be wary if you or your kids have asthma.
 
I can't remember if it's dole that makes it, but, I get a package of pineapple, mango and papaya. Those are really good!

I agree with buckytom. Banana came in a close second with me.
