Dole Tropical Fruit in 100% Fruit Juice - Pineapple and Papaya - Dole Resealable Jars - Rich Source of Vitamin C - 23.5 oz - 8 Pack

I have the pineapple and papaya option. I like canned and jarred fruit. I also like fresh and frozen, but I dont always find what I want in local stores, fresh isnt always available or look good, price can be too much for mediocre looking fresh fruit, or too expensive, etc. I find value in keeping shelf stable on hand. Works in a pinch as a snack, for use over hot oatmeal, in smoothies, or even in baking. If you like it, go for it. Firm and sweet, nice sized chunks. It is what it is. I bought this set because they are pack in 100% fruit juice. The country of origin for this variety is the Philippines. Each listing states the country of origin, so no surprises. Hate seeing something downrated for that because the buyer didnt read the product description. I like the plastic containers over canned because it is easier to use. No need to put in separate container. Though for longer term storage I prefer actual cans. Anway, I would buy this again if the price is right. I have no qualms about quality or quantity. Everything looks good, tastes good.

These were first sent to me by a foodie friend. I would never have tried them on my own. They are really quite good, in a tasty syrup that's sweet but not too sweet. What I especially like is that the plastic jars they come in are reusable, and make perfect containers for various foods, when traveling in my camper van. The fruit alone is well worth the price, and the jars have a residual value that is really a nice bonus. I even made a tray to hold them in my van. Pretty long shelf life, and well sealed before opening.

This is a great deal and the size is perfect for me as I am eating alot of fruit right now after ending my Carnivore diet 😀. The papaya and pineapple 🍍 are perfectly ripe. Not too hard not to soft, just right. The juice isn't sickeningly sweet. The juice is a natural fruit juice solution. I enjoy easily having healthy fruit on hand year round even though its in plastic jars. I prefer glass jars but anyway. I think its a good price for a case of such large jars. Its a great item to add to your shelf stable fruit collection.

The product itself is delicious, and a much bigger portion size than the ridiculously small cans in the grocery store. Only problem was one of the jars was cracked, sticky, and not safe to eat. I didn't want to return it and risk 7 good jars of food being wasted, but would have liked a way to get a partial refund.

Wth is "sheerness", and "thickness"- this is fruit, not stockings. Anyway, this fruit is very sweet and flavourful, fresh, and lots of delicious natural juice in the jar. The 2 types of fruit are separated, so if you eat it straight from the jar you'll eat pineapple first, then finish up with the sweet papaya. The only thing slightly negative (if you can call it that) is the plastic seal rips off hard, so you might spill a little juice as you're yanking it off- WITH FORCE. But, another silly thing to be fretting aboot, so there's really no room for complaint. I can go through an 8er box of these in a few days, so the price being relatively low for such a good product is another benefit.

Some of the fruit I have never tasted before, like papayas. It's delicious and the fruit is not mushy. It gives a solid bite with a burst of flavor. I note that the kids do not care for some of the tropical fruit because they are looking for the very soft items likes peaches. They will grow a taste over time I'm sure and makes a nice side dish to a meal. My favorite is a bunch added to plain cereal such as Cheerios. It adds some sweetness but not too sweet, and gets a good serving or two of fruit in.

Fresh

We purchased this before transitioning our household to all-organic, non-GMO foods that do not have sythentic, chemical, or man-made in factory or lab elements involved in food processing. While the fruit blend was convenient and the flavor was bright, this product no longer meets our current standards. The fruit is not organic, and the plastic container raises concerns about long-term exposure, especially with fruit stored in liquid. We now prioritize glass jars, certified organic sourcing, and other natural considerations. For families not yet focused on ingredient sourcing or packaging materials, this is a convenient pantry option. But for those shifting toward clean eating and low-tox living - this one’s a skip. Pros: Sweet and ready-to-serve Resealable jars for easy stora Long shelf life Tip: If clean living is your goal, opt for organic fruit in glass jars with no added preservatives. They’re worth the switch.
