Made In Nature Organic Dried Turkish Smyrna Figs, 16 Ounce (Pack of 1) – Vegan Snack, Non-GMO, Unsulfured, Gluten Free, Kosher

Yummy. Crystallized sugars on the surface plus dainty dried seeds inside lend a delightful, delicate crispiness to balance the chewy sweetness. Perfect with a cup of tea as a replacement for a cookie or tea wafer—similarly sweet and toothsome, but much better nutrition. Have purchased for years; wish they weren't so pricey these days—used to get the 40 oz. bag just four years ago for $16. Have tried other brands, but keep coming back...

Best dried figs ever!!! Uniform color and size. Taste better than all other brands I've tried.

I’m on Plant Paradox diet (Dr. Gundry) and while figs aren’t discouraged on it, every now and then I get an autoimmune reaction to some food. Some years ago I got one after eating some dried figs. This year I decided to try some figs again because I had a craving. Lo and behold, after having consumed two bags I ended up with an autoimmune flair up and had to go on medication. I assume there is some microorganism that lives on dried figs that causes this reaction—I don’t get one from fresh fruit. This by no means is a reflection on the quality of the product even though as my father says, who knows what’s added to it to keep it fresh and do I really have 100% assurance only what’s on the label is inside. The truth is, I don’t. It might just be that it’s whatever likes to live on the figs that causes the reaction. If you’re new to autoimmune diets, please know reactions you get to foods are different than allergies. I’m allergic to no known foods in existence. The autoimmune reactions to foods happen among others as I understand through the mechanism of molecular mimicry. This might mean that some microbe will make your body throw a fit, and various microbes do live on dry fruit. In particular, figs often develop some sort of white film on them. Last but not least, it is by no means certain I’d have had this reaction had I stuck to eating one or two pieces of this fruit. They are delicious mind you. I hope this helps. Last but not least: obviously none of this is medical advice, but I bet you knew it anyway. :) Thanks for reading. I hope this was helpful. UPDATE I opened the bag of those figs to take a look again. It’s not even that there is white sediment on top, it’s actually white POWDER (FLOUR???) or whatever it is, looks like added to help with moisture or spoilage. THIS IS NOT MENTIONED ON THE PACKAGE. And AS FAR AS I KNOW IT IS ILLEGAL NOT TO LIST ALL FOOD INGREDIENTS IN THE PRODUCT. To the company selling this, did you bother to confirm what the INGREDIENTS in this thing are? Or do you just buy some bulk product from Turkey, put it in a bag, and not care? Should I send it to a lab and test for whatever is stuck to the fruit? Have you cost me autoimmune breakouts and medication? I’m well aware how companies market their products on Amazon without putting minimum care into even labeling things properly, but this is FOOD. Also, does the manufacturer or the seller bother to reply at all? Is the powder some toxic preservative that is not listed on the package? Should I do a lab test and if anything comes out of it sue for negligence?

Good snack. A little bit too sweet.

I'm on my second bag of these dried figs. Much better than the usual "strung together in a circle" figs I've always bought. These are bigger, not strung up and just dry enough - they sort of melt in the mouth. It's nice to know they're organic which may account for their great taste. My only complaint is the zip-loc bag's closure. You have to make sure the tracks have sealed properly, or the figs may go bad. So I've transferred mine to a glass storage container. Problem solved.

I used to get Calimyrna Figs from my local grocery store, along with some mission figs. I like the mission figs, but I really love the Calimyrna Figs. I was VERY disappointed when the store stopped carrying them, thinking they were just out, but every store I went to stopped carrying them, I had no idea why! I kept putting off buying them here, until recently, and when they arrived, I couldn't wait to open the bag. I can't tell you how really wonderful and moist they were straight out of the bag when still a little warm from the travel to my house. Even my wife liked them, and she isn't a fig lover. They really were great. I put them in the fridge as they say to keep it refrigerated when opened, although the past figs I bought I never did that, and had no problems, but since this was such a large bag, I thought it best. They are a little tougher after being cold for a while, and maybe a little shock in the microwave might moisten them up a bit, (I have often soaked dried dates in water for 10 or 15 minutes when this happened with good results) but most of the time, I usually pack a baggie full of them and eat them at work as a snack over a weeks time. If you like these figs, don't hesitate getting them, (if you've never tried them your missing a treat) especially if you can't get them at your local stores. They'll last a while, 40 ounces is a lot. About 13 of them weigh 8 oz, which makes about 65 per bag, and I usually eat 3 or 4 at a time. Not a bad deal at all. I will most definitely get more of these as they get eaten up.

Theses were not what I was expecting. I did not like the texture or the flavors.

Finally, a great product that is worthy of the price! Wonderful flavor and texture.

Excellent product and excellent service.
