I want to get some dried fruit for snacks and recipes but I see that many add sugar, oil and other things. Are there preferred brands or websites that offer dried fruit without additives? Thanks in advance.

    You can dry your own fruit for a lot less money. You don't even need a dehydrator, you can do it in the oven.

    I agree with Trader Joe's, Sprouts, Whole Foods etc. pretty much any place that has a good selection of natural foods without a lot of additives/sugars etc. Although if you have time drying it yourself in the oven would probably be a lot cheaper.
