You can't go wrong with this brand. I love that I know that no matter what I buy from them that it will be a quality product and packaged for longevity. Having a well prepared pantry is important to me and this is my go-to brand at a reasonable price.I love that I can buy this in bulk and leave it knowing that it is packaged to last.Open the can and snack away or add these to your favorite recipes. These are super yummy.You get a lot of product for the price. Don't let the weight of the can fool you.I like that this is not a chemical nightmare.I try to have item on hand for in the event of an emergency. I look for items that are packaged well, travel well, don't require a lot of additional ingredients, are flexible for how they are used, and will act as comfort food. This fits the bill.My rabbits LOVE that I buy these. They make an excellent treat for them (in moderation), too.

Love these! They are delicious and crunchy snacks right out of the can, and that's usually how I eat them. You should take note that they will get chewy pretty quickly if you don't keep them in an airtight container. BUT that is not the end of the world -- there are still plenty of uses for them. We have a special needs adult son who has chewing issues, and is not a big fan of fruit in general. I take these apple slices, reconstitute them for about 15 minutes in hot water, chop them up and pile them on pancakes; cover it all with maple syrup, and he's in 7th heaven. It really is tasty! When I'm feeling more ambitious, I use them reconstituted in apple pies and tarts, even apple bread and muffins, which he approves of as well, and much easier than dealing with all the peeling and chopping of fresh apples.

This company provides consistently good food that lasts a long time. The packaging is easy to open.

Unopened product for long term emergency supplies. Counting on vitamin C, fruit flavor adding to diet variation. I wish these came in smaller cans as well. For a single person, the same clock starts ticking when you first open that can. These can also be re-bagged in foil seal pouches, but that is every time you use some. The product can be snipped with scissors and added to oatmeal w/a little cinnamon. Layer unsalted crackers with these, add a little water and campfire bake for an Apple Pie, adding butter, cinnamon, sugar to personal taste. That works in a sandwich press for singles as well. I suggest trying out, using products for your family, that way they will be more accepting of the products if a need arises to rely on these for important nutrition. Try incorporating them in "All Hands On Deck" Camping Weekends. Everyone has chores, Cooking, a Fire Keeper, Supply Counter, Energy Zarr, Medic, USO Officer/entertainment. Next trip everyone gets a different job to do. If we know how to get through rough strange patches, we do not tend to stress, worry or fear. Make it fun.

Came quickly. Nice storage sized can. Well round out emergency meals.

Not good as a snack. Has a strong chemical taste.

The Auguson Farm dehydrated apple slices arrived undamaged with the included plastic lid used for short term resealing after opening in a vacuum sealed number 10 sized metal can.Delicious as a recipe addition or by themselves.Love the longer term storage that you get with the dehydration method here. When needed to rehydrate with water simply follow the directions on the can, easy peasy!
