LOL. It seriously is dried up! The fruit slices I put in my dehydrator, that is! SO I had an awesome friend who gifted me her Dash Dehydrator after finding she was "too impatient." --Her words, not mine. Just my luck because we get a bountiful of fruit and veggies all the time and had been looking into getting one! YAY! So why a dehydrator ? It preserves the food, keeping the nutrients without the water. It's convenient and doesn't take up room in your fridge because it can be stored in a cabinet. You could even bag or jar up, add a bow and tag, and gift to family and friends anytime throughout the year. These Stand up, reusable paper style bags with windows would be great if by chance you're adventurous and want to try your hand at selling or dried foods gift basket making! 😄 Best of all, it could save you money over buying prepackaged dried fruits and meats, and it's healthier! I'll be honest, I was so excited to use my new dehydrator, I got to...
