I just had my first fruit snack in many years and it immediately took me back to first grade recess. Wow, I used to love those things. But the best ones were the Gushers that exploded with juciness. The worst fruit snacks by far were the fruit leather that was peeled off plastic and ended up being a condensed ball of fruit goo in your mouth.

But I realized that fruit snacks do not really taste like fruit at all, but more resembles candy. That may be why I liked them so much.
