Here’s why: Equivalent to 5 Oreo cookies in dough
Applesauce is a classic snack to backpack for a child’s lunch, and with apple rightfield in the name, we may assume it is just as trim as a piece of fruit.
However, the sweet versions of applesauce, with accessorial glucose and fructose, are no stellar tidbit – one container has as much sugar as phoebe Oreo cookies!
A simple swop to the unsweetened option gives you an apparent on-the-go snack that’s just as flavourful. Make sure you look tight at the label for the unsweetened version.
