fruit snacks that aren't "sticky"?
my son is obsessed with fruit snacks - could be worse. I used to buy Target's brand - they were not at all sticky and had 100% DV of vitamin C in each pack. Loved them but I cannot find them since Halloween.
I find Annie's to be very sticky and we just tried Ocean Spray since they were on sale, also very sticky (worried about his teeth).
Any ideas?

for me, sticky or not (to touch) they all still get gummed up in their teeth. My preference is an actual fruit.
Its hard enough to get her to brush her teeth (much less do a good job of it) ugh! I brush her top teeth. I'm lucky if I get her to brush once a day.. but if she DOES do it twice I'm in heaven! lol
I'm so looking forward to the dentist visit next year (sarcasm)

i get it  but there is a huge difference. I can look in his mouth and not see chunks of fruit snack stuck to his teeth if they are the right ones OR like these ocean spray ones, they stick. just looking for the best option. we bruch twice a day, he is good about it.

Re: fruit snacks that aren't "sticky"?
I just bought DD the Gerber Graduate ones as a snack for our flight to FL. I had some myself and they weren't sticky...and were quite yummy!

Re: fruit snacks that aren't "sticky"?
This may not work for you but DD LOVES these Mickey fruit snacks- they are not sticky- they are more like freeze dried fruit.
Apple, Pear, or Pineapple.
No sugar added.
Just freeze dried fruit.
They are delicious- yes, I snake some from her!
They have them in Stop n Shop- they are usually in a cardboard display in the baby aisle or at an end cap.
They come in individual packages with Mickey and friends on the package.

I haven't given fruit snacks but dd loves dried fruit. I actually get them at Costco. They come in individual packets and ones apple, ones apple cinnamon and ones banana and strawberry. We go through so many of them. Less than $1 a pouch too!!!!!

Re: fruit snacks that aren't "sticky"?
Target in Farmingdale has them too. I saw them at lunch today. I checked the box to make sure it said Vitamin C. I think they are the same ones you were referring to.
