Jammin' with the superfruits

 Crofters 














I'm not a big fan of those "all fruit" spreads that claim to be all natural. Be it strawberry, blueberry or peach, they pretty much all taste the same because they're usually full of clarified grape and/or pear juice.

But there's a new quartet of fruit spreads just out that blows the big guys' selections out of the water.  Crofter's Organic Superfruit Spreads are made with berries from all corners of the Earth:

  • North American blend: Cranberry and Blueberry
  • South American blend: Berry Maqui and Passionfruit
  • European blend: Pomegranate and Black Currant
  • Asian blend: Yumberry and Raspberry

All the varieties are blended with Morello Cherries and Red Grapes and organic Fair Trade sugar. They're also 30 calories a tablespoon, which is 10 fewer than the regular supermarket fruit spreads.

There are big chunks and sometimes whole berries in the fruit spreads, and all of the featured fruits are extremely high in antioxidants, so it's all good.

In addition to the usual uses (toast, PB&J), they're fantastic swirled into plain yogurt or spread onto waffles.

You can find the spreads in Whole Foods nationally and also at specialty natural and organic grocery stores.
