Organic Traditions introduces the snack industry to its sugar-free Fruit Jerky. Ideal for on-the-go summer snacking, this chewy treat comes in watermelon and honeydew flavors. The Canadian company puts a fruity twist on the classic jerky, boasting no added preservatives or fillers. Known for its ethically sourced superfood ingredients, the brand works closely with farms to create sustainable, eco-driven, and socially conscious partnerships.
The healthy snack is made from naturally grown, whole ripe watermelon and honeydew. As a reflection of the brand's commitment to serving nutritious snacks, the manufacturing process is simple. First, the melons are peeled, sliced, and dried in a state-of-the-art industrial oven until they reach the desired moisture levels. After drying, the nutrient-dense jerky is individually hand-selected and packed for consumer consumption.
