 Inside of can corrodedJul 16, 2006
By Peggy
"pab920"
After I enptied the can, I noticed it was black in an area at the top of the can and appeared to be corroded. Of course I was afraid to eat the fruit, so I threw it away. I am waiting for a response from Native Forest to ascertain the type of metal can and if it is harmful. One would expect if they went to the effort to be certified as organic, they would use safe canning. I will post an addendum w/ their response.

 Great Dessert!Jan 08, 2009
By R. Williams
This is great chilled and topped with fresh whipped cream. It is my husband's new favorite dessert.
I don't find the texture off-putting. Of course, is isn't as crunchy as fresh fruit, but the taste is great.
If I can get my husband to eat fruit instead of ice cream it gets an A in my book!

Not Safe!Jun 04, 2009
By David Daniel
After reading a previous review I carefully inspected the cans when they arrived. The cans were immaculate and very clean so I felt relieved. After cooling in the fridge I ate the first can. The fruit was very mushy and not attractive to look at and frankly a disapointment but did not taste rotten per say. Only minutes later though my mouth felt like acid was eating at it and was very painful for hours even after washing out my mouth. I eat much canned and fresh fruit and this was a first for me. Only days later my teeth and gums were infected and I had to go to the dentist for the pain was so bad. He found infection and I had to undergo a treatment of antibiotics and painkillers before I was finally ok again after about 2 weeks. SHEESH! Needless to say I threw out the remaining cans of fruit! The problem must be at the source as the cans and packaging were 1st rate and shining clean. Quality control must really suck. I'm all for natural but great care must be taken so contamination is avoided. This is a foreign product and their health standards may be lacking there. I would stay far away from this stuff if you value your health!

Tastes like mushy pineappleJul 21, 2010

This product was a complete disappointment. Tastes like mushy pineapple. There was no papaya taste.

Great Option for Keeping Fruit at WorkApr 09, 2009
By Goldwave
"shopper"
I was amazed at how good this is for canned fruit (which I normally won't touch). In particular I adore papayas and mangos. The fruit juice instead of syrup is also very nice. The easy pull-top on the can makes this a great item to stash in my desk drawer at work, so that I can have a fruit snack easily even if I was too busy or forgot to bring lunch. So far I haven't gotten a can that had any problems. The watermelon isn't crunchy - of course not! - but it's good, and certainly not "slimy".
