Augason Farms Freeze-Dried Pineapple Pieces

Try out Freeze-dried Pineapple Pieces from Augason Farms to add a refreshing zest of tropical flavour to your routine food storage and diversify your nutrition! A varied diet is very important; it keeps you healthy in emergencies, and keeps you happy year-round. Freeze-dried pineapple is a great supplementary source of dietary fiber and magnesium and Vitamin C, and also makes an excellent addition to granola, cereal, baked goods, and more!

Freeze-dried pineapple has a light, sweet taste, and a nice crunch and is ready whenever you are! Even better, there’s no mess or waste to deal with — no inedible core, no prickly outer skin, no spiky stem. Freeze-drying preserves all of the nutrition and benefits of pineapple in a shelf-stable application. Pineapple is an excellent source of calcium, potassium, manganese, insoluble fiber, and vitamins such as Vitamin A, B, and C. It also contains bromelain which is useful as a tenderizer, and is a natural anti-inflammatory. Freeze-dried pineapple is incredibly versatile, perfect for everything from sweet snacks to savoury meals. It can be eaten out of hand, used in a trail mix, used in baking, in some Asian-inspired dishes or in pork dishes, or added to leafy salads for a sweet crunch, or even use in beverages such as smoothies or mix with club soda for an easy punch.

To best maximize your food storage plan, pair this fruit with Breakfast or Combo packages such as those from Legacy.
