An Honest Review of Flamingo Estate's $82 Fruit Snacks
For my entire life, I've been a fruit snacks enthusiast. As a child, I was indoctrinated by the seemingly limitless 90s fruit-snack-sphere: Shark Bites, Gushers, Fun Fruits, and (deep cut) Fruit Wrinkles. To this day, my movie-theater snack of choice is Welch's Fruit Snacks. What, like they're only for children or something? Something about the gummy texture, the vibrant flavors, the bite-sized format — it all just adds up for me into something greater than the sum of its parts, a marvel of modern food science.
I read the website's copy for this mysterious product, once, and then again.
'We took the lushest, ripest Strawberries from Harry's Berries and dusted them with the bright spice of Guajillo Chiles grown by Boonville Barn Collective, adding a squeeze of Key Lime and a pinch of Big Sur Sea Salt. Then we gently dehydrated them to preserve their juiciness and concentrate all of that quintessential Strawberry flavor. The result is these small dried wonders. Insanely addictive, sweet, tart and spicy with a delectable chew. Truly nature's candy.'
At this juncture, I paused. These 'small dried wonders' sound like all I've ever wanted: the one fruit snack to rule them all. The antidote. The culmination of my desires. Do you know about Harry's Berries? They're, like, the Platonic ideal of strawberries; they're a Southern California sensation set apart by their exceptional quality, flavor, sweetness, and jamminess. The lines for Harry's Berries at any Los Angeles-area farmer's market tend to be long, snaking, and unrelenting. To make these berries into a chewy snack… unheard of, previously, as far as I know.
I continued.
'We are honored to partner with the inimitable Harry's Berries by using their exquisite Strawberries. This small-batch family farm has been growing for over 50 years, and is the true definition of generational farming. Their berries represent what Strawberries should be at their best — harvested when perfectly ripe, ruby red, and sweet. They are Certified Organic, employ sustainable growing practices, and have a deep commitment to stewardship of the land.'
I imagined transcendence. I yearned. I longed! I saw hot people eating the fruit snacks on TikTok and Instagram and felt a profound sense of FOMO.
Lo and behold, I eventually became a recipient of a jar of these storied creations. Could chewing on a Spicy Strawberry Snack so robustly exceed the joy of eating a bag of saxophone-shaped Fun Fruit?

First impressions: the Strawberry Spicy Snacks definitely feel premium. The jar and label have a much different presence than the thin plastic or foil-lined paper packets from which I've historically eaten fruit snacks. A jar feels… artisanal. Open it and you'll see dozens of dark, shiny berries, glimmering like rubies with a syrupy, crystalline sweetness instead of the satin finish of a traditional, preservative-covered fruit snack. Did I mention that they're made with almost entirely organic ingredients (besides the sea salt — salt cannot legally be certified 'organic')?
Naturally, you want to know how they taste, what it's like to eat them. The answer is: surprisingly complex. At first, the stickiness was a bit of a surprise — they're not gooey, but they definitely don't have that sort of powder-coated anti-stick technology found in, say, Welch's, or the fruit snacks of the 90s. They're still definitely finger food, but you will need to give your hands a quick wipe or rinse after eating. Chopsticks could be an asset here. That said, I enjoy the mouthfeel of the tiny seeds embedded in the strawberries' surfaces, despite internal references in my psyche from childhood that likened jammy, seedy fruit to alien pod people.
As for the flavor, it begins with a slight tartness that morphs into a sweet, jelly-like, classic strawberry flavor that soon gives way to a surprising amount of heat. They're not joking — these fruit snacks are unquestionably spicy; they're spicier than Cholula hot sauce, which I generously doused on my eggs this morning, but not spicy enough to induce any sweating. I'd say they're on par with hot Takis or Flamin' Hot Cheetos — there's a slow and mild burn but it fades within about 15 seconds of finishing each bite. Think an elevated, less tropical and more berry-forward interpretation of chile mango.
The TL;DR is that they're delicious; a Harry's Berry marinated in sugar, lime juice, Guajillo chile, and cayenne, as it turns out, creates a chewy, tactile gift of the Earth. They're sweet but in an adult way; piquant but not in a way that's limiting. Truthfully, I like them a lot, but would only eat a few at a time. Savor them. Don't let the magic become routine.
As for the price tag — which, at $82 per jar, is undoubtedly eye-popping — let's break it down a bit. Flamingo Estate says that there are three pounds of Harry's Berries in every jar, and a pound of Harry's Berries costs $20 (or, from some sellers, nearly $30). Sure, Flamingo Estate surely buys them wholesale, but right there, we're looking at $60+ of the jar's value mathematically expressed through the cost of the berries alone. Then there are the other organic ingredients, the cooking and drying process, and the need for a profit margin, and yep, you're looking at $82. While it's a discourse-worthy price tag, it's not terribly different than, say, the really expensive fruit in Japan that's specifically developed for gifts and holidays— this isn't a chill pantry addition for casual everyday consumption, although if that's a possibility with the Scrooge McDuck gold swimming pool you're working with, by all means. This is not a commodity that you're going to buy in bulk and keep jars of on hand at all times. This is a special occasion fruit snack. A gift fruit snack. A luxury fruit snack.
By the way, these may be fruit snacks, but my personal belief system dictates that they're not for kids. Buy your rugrats some normal gummy candy and send them outside to play in the dirt and develop an immune system. If Fruit Wrinkles still existed, I'd say get them some of those. (RIP.) (Please bring back Fruit Wrinkles.)
A case could be made that in order for the world to maintain balance, there must be not only a very cheap, accessible version of any given product, but also a highly refined, elite version. There is $6 caviar on Amazon, and there is $2,600 caviar at Bergdorf Goodman. There is the $7 olive oil at Grocery Outlet and there is the $119 olive oil at Williams Sonoma. You know, it's like that Byrds song — there's a time and place for all things.
So why wouldn't there be $1.49 fruit snacks and also $82 fruit snacks? And if the latter exists, why wouldn't we want to try them… at least once?
Spicy Strawberry Fruit Snacks are available at Flamingo Estate.

The D.C. Restaurant Openings to Know This July
This is Eater's guide to all the new restaurants, bars, and cafes that have opened this month. If there's an opening in your neighborhood that we've missed, let us know at dc@ July 29 Downtown: Barbouzard – which means 'secret agent' in French – brings a lauded chef's longstanding recipes, bespoke music, and late-night aspirations to the busy corner of 17th and K Street NW on Tuesday, July 29. French American chef and partner Cedric Maupillier showcases his South of France education and upbringing across Barbouzard's plates, highlighting the elegance of the Riviera and the rest of the vast Mediterranean coast. The menu features grilled fish and seafood, plenty of vegetable dishes, seafood towers, and caviar (martinis), along with a short list of meats, steak-frites, and pasta. The 6,493-square-foot restaurant also houses a central DJ booth and stage for live piano, sax, guitar, and violin performances. Weekend hours extend until 1 a.m. 1700 K Street NW July 25 Gordon Ramsay's new Backyard burger. Gordon Ramsay Street Burger Penn Quarter: Celebrity chef and television personality Gordon Ramsay's burger chain lands stateside for the first time on Friday, July 25, on the lower level of his Street Pizza location on 7th Street. Street Burger's debut location in D.C. puts a twist on patties, serving 'American-style' smash burgers that you won't currently find at any of the nine U.K. locations. The five-ounce double smash patties comes in many forms, from the familiar In-N-Out style burger, called 'Next Level,' with caramelized onions, pickles, and a spicy aioli to a Hell's Kitchen-inspired burger with spicy tomato chutney, crispy onions, and jalapeños. There are also fried chicken sandwiches, vegan burgers made with harissa-spiced vegetables, buckets of chicken wings, $5 draft beers, and loaded fries on the new menu. 507 7th Street NW July 24 Rosslyn: Next-gen food hall Wonder opened its first Virginia location on Thursday, July 24, serving up dishes from iconic restaurants around the nation, like Brooklyn's Di Fara Pizza, Tejas Barbecue from Texas, and Marcus Samuelsson's Streetbird. Wonder recruits superstar chefs to lend their names and recipes, as well as co-develop exclusive concepts just for them, such as Greek-inspired Chios Taverna from celebrity chef Michael Symon in Rosslyn. The kitchen churns out dishes from 20 eateries in all, allowing diners to try an array of cuisines in the small dining area or delivered straight to their front door by Wonder drivers. The food hall touts a door-to-door delivery time of 30 minutes or less. 1771 N. Pierce St., Unit 100, Rosslyn, Virginia July 20 Georgetown: Yala Greek Ice Cream's founder Chrys Kefalas brought D.C. a unique taste of Rhodes — the Greek isle where his family is from — on Sunday, July 20 (National Ice Cream day). Relying on farm-fresh cream and premium ingredients sourced from the Mediterranean, opening flavors range from Greek classics like baklava and cherry studded with chocolate chunks to familiar American favorites like rocky road and cookies and cream. A strawberry vegan sorbet and several frozen Greek yogurt options are also available. Color-changing spoons are a whimsical touch in a bright blue-and-white Georgetown shop that speaks to Greece's flag. 3143 N Street NW Related The Inside Scoop on the Greek Ice Cream Shop Coming to Georgetown July 18 Dupont Circle: Selva started serving up Central and South American classics — from Peruvian chicken and continent-spanning ceviches, to playful takes on internationally beloved dishes like patatas bravas made with crispy bites of yuca — on Friday, July 18. Executive chef Giovanni Orellana is creating dishes inspired by his birthplace of El Salvador and his decades-long culinary career working at Peruvian, Italian, and Mexican restaurants. Mayflower Club owner Antonis Karagounis is behind the new restaurant, which is his first sit-down spot since opening Rewind Diner in 2018. The verdant green artwork and velvet furniture make the cozy restaurant – named after the Spanish word for 'jungle' – the perfect place to have a filling meal and ease into a night out, with plenty of tasting flights of liquors distilled across the Americas and the Mayflower Club on the floor below. 1223 Connecticut Avenue NW July 17 Old Town: Thompson Restaurants brought its Southern-styled brunch chain Milk & Honey to the heart of Old Town Alexandria on Thursday, July 17. The two-story space that formerly housed Thompson's Hen Quarter features two full-service bars, a large private dining room, and seating for up to 188. 801 King Street, Alexandria, Virginia Foggy Bottom: Taco Cat, an adorable, all-day taco shop from vet D.C. restaurateur Tim Ma, quietly sauntered into Western Market food hall in mid-July. An unapologetically fun menu loops in lots of global flavors into tacos, burritos, and tortas. Along with classic breakfast tacos on corn tortillas, the morning menu also includes the levanta muertos ('wake the dead') ceviche packed with shrimp, cucumbers, red onions, tomato dressing, hot sauce, avocado, and Tajín. For the ultimate wake-up call, there's an option to add a tequila shot for $4. Open 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. 2000 Pennsylvania Avenue NW July 14 Clarendon: Around since 2003, New York City's vegetable-loving cafe Westville debuts its first location outside of its Big Apple-area home base on Monday, July 14. Located at the Crossing Clarendon, Westville specializes in char-grilled turkey burgers, truffle fries, and 20-plus rotating market veggies like crispy Brussels sprouts and pesto mashed potatoes, plus veggie chili and carrot cake for lunch, dinner, and brunch. A full bar slings wines and beers from the DMV and home-made cocktails like a strawberry Aperol spritz and blood orange paloma. 2800 Clarendon Boulevard, Arlington, Virginia Westville's menu goes heavy on fresh vegetables. July 11 National Landing: D.C. hospitality brothers Ian and Eric Hilton (H2 Collective) opened all-day French brasserie Bar Colline on Friday, July 11. Located next to Amazon HQ2, Bar Colline is their massive metropolitan answer to the charming original (Cafe Colline), which debuted in 2020 in an Arlington suburb. H2's longtime chef Brendan L'Etoile imports its top-selling steak frites dunked in bearnaise, croque madame, and duck confit. A 50-foot wraparound bar slings spritzes, local beers, and wines, with daily happy hour that includes $6 red, white, and rosé pours from 3-6 p.m. 269 19th Court S., Arlington, Virginia Related A Supersized French Bistro Swings Open Near Amazon HQ2 Woodley Park: Ethiopian-owned Yours Cafe debuted in mid-July with coffee drinks made from beans roasted in-house, plus breakfast and brunch served all day daily (7 a.m. to 7 p.m.). Order wine, beer, and cocktails (naturally, a great espresso martini) starting at 11 a.m. 2619 Connecticut Avenue NW July 10 14th Street NW: The first D.C. location of unconventional food hall Wonder opened up just off U Street on Thursday, July 10, churning out dishes from celebrity chefs like Michael Symon, Marcus Samuelsson, Bobby Flay, Nancy Silverton, and José Andrés. Ordering from screens or the Wonder app, diners can order everything from a pizza from Brooklyn's famous Di Fara or a Samuelsson-certified fried chicken sandwich on one tab. Wonder's culinary team makes everything, from Mexican or barbecue to Greek pastries, on-site. The chef-lauded food hall will soon embark on a local expansion tear, with locations planned for the West End, College Park, Cleveland Park, Reston, Franconia, and Navy Yard. 1925 14th Street NW Union Market: Baltimore-born Crepe Crazy DMV brings its sweet and savory crepes down to D.C. with a new stall inside Union Market. 1309 5th Street NE July 1 Union Market: Shilling Canning Company's cult-favorite fried chicken finds a standalone home inside Union Market. Chef Reid Shilling's new fast-casual venture Fancy Ranch sources all foul from family-owned Amish farms in Indiana and Pennsylvania. The casual bar is serving up white or dark meat with a cornbread waffle slathered in maple butter and fun sides like aji verde potato salad, classic slaw, or slow-cooked beans. Make your chicken even fancier by adding on caviar and a glass of Champagne. Fancy Ranch's long-term pop-up residency lasts through September. 1309 5th Street NE H Street: Chef Tim Ma is at it again, this time with an all-you-can-eat sushi spot for H Street NE.
