Wild California Mango Jalapeño Crisps: Purchased from Monterey Market in Berkeley, these fruit crisps are a great snack in many ways.

While crisps like these tend to be paired with cheese or dip, I found them to be satisfying all on their own. 4.0/5.0

wildwonder Peach Ginger Prebiotic and Probiotic Drink: I've had probiotic drinks, but this is my first time (knowingly) consuming a prebiotic drink (consisting of dietary fibers to further facilitate gut health).

The boba was similarly subpar - overly hard and lacking any taste. Definitely the worst... (read more) 1.0/5.0

You Love Fruit passion fruit punch snack: This organic fruit leather snack has a fruit-by-the-foot feel, with heart-shaped slices you peel off of a paper backing. Each pack contains 16 sizable hearts, equating to two servings. It's not overly sweet like many fruit snacks are, and the passion fruit flavor is pure if not the most pronounced. Good source of fiber. Tastes healthy but not quite like a health food snack. 3.0/5.0
