I'm not sure if you can get these in the US or not (they're Canadian made), but if you can get your hands on them, I would definitely recommend trying real green bars. They're very similar in taste and texture to fruit leather, but they're so much better because they contain 4 (yes 4!) servings of organic fruits and veggies. Check out the ingredients:
INGREDIENTS – Certified organic apples, Certified organic vegetables (Tomato, Broccoli, Carrot, Parsley, Spinach, Garlic, Onion, Celery, Beet), Apple fibre, Fructo-oligosaccharides (chicory root powder), and/or Strawberry, Banana, Lemon, Raspberry juice concentrates. I have no idea how they cram all of those fruits and veggies into one little bar, but I'm glad that they did!

They also make Real Fruit and Real Tropical bars (both with 4 servings of fruit), but I have yet to try them. You can see/order the bars (and print off a coupon) here: http://www.realgreen.ca/home.asp

Oooh those look good. I'll be on the lookout for them. Even if they don't sell them in the U.S., we drive over to Windsor, Ontario occasionally.

I've heard of these. What I don't get is that if they supposedly have 4 servings of fruit and veggies in each bar, how come they are so low in vitamin A??
