 Modify Your Expectations Sep 20, 2007
By David B. Eck
"davideck57"
These are Turkish apricots that differ from varieties found in the U.S. Dried Turkish apricots are moister and thicker and have a somewhat tangy taste. Since these apricots are unsulphured, they are brown. (Sulphur is used manly to make fruits look more attractive. Sulphured apricots are yellow, just as sulphured "golden" raisins are.)
Any bag of dried fruit (organic or not) will most likely have a piece or two that is drier and tougher than the rest. Made in Nature is no different.
I find the fruit to be mostly sweet and chewy. This is a good mid-day snack. Dried apricots can also be finely chopped and cooked with oatmeal. The reasealable bags are terrific. I will continue to purchase these as the price is lower than health food stores and shipping is free on orders of $25 and up.

Delish! Apr 04, 2007
By Orgainc mama-san
We love this all natural, organic apricot.
Very sweet and soft. Worth the money. You pay more at a health food store per bag. I,ve been shopping from the health food stores for over 25 years. Let me say that the color is not as bright and cheerful as the non- organic counterpart but keep in mind that this is all natural. It was not treated with chemicals, preservatives or colorings. This is good tasting and good for you. For me, it is good quality and deliscious. I will order this again and other natural fruit products by them. Enjoy!

 These Apricots Aren't Dried Properly Aug 01, 2008
By D. Dillon

One star. These Apricots aren't dried all the way through. Some of them were fine, but others were wet inside and tasted off. They gave me a stomach ache and the runs. They were even stored in the refrigerator after opening. I ended up throwing out the rest of the first package. I thought I just had gotten a bad batch. When I went to open the second bag, I noticed that two of the remaining bags (out of the 6 pack) were fat with air - like they could explode eventually. That is bacteria inside giving off their gaseous byproduct. If you've ever seen a can of food that wasn't properly canned, you'll know what I mean. They can rupture. I threw out the remaining bags because Amazon only has a thirty day return policy. Don't waste your money! There are better dried fruits out there that won't make you sick.

Nasty Sep 18, 2010
By C. Lemon
These are not what I was expecting. They don't taste like any unsulfered apricots I've ever eaten before. Their texture is strange, too. They're soft and squishy, and not very chewey, which is what I'm used to. Most importantly, they smell and taste awful. Amazon doesn't accept returns on Grocery items, so it's money down the drain for me.

I really like these Dec 22, 2007
By Adam Wood
Based on the reviews here, there clearly isn't a consensus on these. Personally, I really like them. I tried them for the first time last week after buying them from Amazon, and after finishing my first bag of them, my opinion hasn't changed from my first bite - very tasty. After raisins, apricots are my dried fruit of choice. These are the first organic dried apricots that I've tasted, and they have a stronger flavor than the ones that I've had in the past. They are less tangy, but they have more of a sugary taste to them that I think makes them great for a sweet snack.
As mentioned, they are dark in color and therefore do not look like the dried apricots that most people are probably used to seeing. However, I think they taste great, and I particularly like that they are organic. People may want to try a single bag from the local store before ordering these seeing as how they appear to be a love them or hate them item.
