I can't stand the greasy "fried" banana chips, but love the freeze-dried ones from "Just Tomatoes."

For other fruits, I prefer the taste of dried rather than freeze-dried, but I packed the freeze-dried ones for my recent abortive Wind Rivers trip to save weight. Normally my favorite hiking snack is the dried Turkish apricots (no sulfur dioxide, which I find nauseating) from Fred Meyer.
