Funky Monkey Snacks Review and Giveaway


Wouldn’t it be great if there was a natural snack that had the great taste and health benefits of fresh fruit, but the crunch and portability of everyday snacks? Now there is! Discover Funky Monkey Snacks - fruit that crunches! Funky Monkey freeze-dries slices and pieces of tropical fruits using a proprietary process to lock in the taste, smell, and nutrients of freshly-picked fruit while adding a fun and satisfying crunch. And every bag of Funky Monkey contains 3 servings of fruit! With nothing added - no added colors, flavors, preservatives, or sugars, Funky Monkey is 100% natural and 100% delicious, as well as gluten-free and certified Kosher. Discover Funky Monkey Snacks - tasty, crunchy, and convenient all-natural snacks with the wholesome goodness of fresh fruit.

So what exactly are Funky Monkey Snacks? Well I’ll tell you:

Funky Monkey Snacks are a line of freeze-dried fruit that are 100% natural, 100% real fruit, and 100% delicious – with three servings of fruit in each 1oz bag! Our “fruit that crunches” provides the ultimate snack, fusing the great taste, smell, and nutritional goodness of fresh fruit with the crunch and convenience of conventional snacks.

Here are some additional Funky Monkey highlights:

•Funky Monkey Snacks have no added colors, flavors, sugars, or preservatives

•Our special, proprietary manufacturing process provides for a crunchier texture vs. conventional freeze-drying techniques

•We use full slices and pieces (not dices) of delicious, fresh fruit

•Funky Monkey is made in Brazil using tropical fruits at the peak of freshness


•Our products are gluten-free and are certified Kosher

•One of our 7 flavors, Purple Funk, also includes açai, a berry from the Amazon that is viewed as the newest superfood

•Bananamon, JiveALime, and Purple Funk are 100% organic! Pink Pineapple is 95% organic, Carnaval Mix is 70% organic.

I’ve been looking for a quick healthy snack that is still full of taste and a fun texture for both my son and I so when I found out more about Funky Monkey I knew I just had to try them! I was fortunate to receive sample package that included several of their mouth watering flavors! They were all very delicious and I was very surprised that my son liked them so much he is a very picky eater but I had no problem getting him to snack on these yummy snacks.

Our thoughts on each of the flavors:

First up we tried the Bananamon, Banana with Cinnamon: We loved them they had just the right amount of crunch and just the right amount of cinnamon to really make your mouth dance with flavor!

Next up we tried the Carnaval Mix: This mix has the perfect proportions of banana, organic pineapple, apple, and papaya the perfect combination!

MangOJ, Mango with Orange Juice: Very unique and mouth watering flavor my son really liked these!

Pink Pineapple: Organic pineapple and guava a perfect match!

Purple Funk: Organic banana and acai I have to say this one was my overall favorite with its unique taste and it’s just crave able!

I would really recommend these to anyone who wants a yummy snack with all the healthy benefits! All the flavors were a big hit in my house so be sure to give em’ a try!

You can buy your own Funky Monkey Snacks online at Amazon.com or you can find a store near you that carries them HERE!
