The short answer
For snacking between meals, fruit you can eat straight from the bag works: no cutlery, no fridge. Born sells it in 40 g bags: coconut with sea salt for the aperitif, dark chocolate fruit for the end and the Family pack for the film. They keep for up to 12 months unopened, according to their product pages.
Aperitif: what to put on the table
Open the bags into bowls and pair the salty with the tangy:
- Coconut with sea salt. Crunchy flakes with 1 % salt. The product page suggests it with beer or white wine.
- Pineapple with lime. Sweet and tangy in equal parts. The product page suggests a glass of cava.
- Mango with lime. A citrus edge that works next to citrus dishes, like a ceviche.
- Mango, pineapple or coconut with a single ingredient, for anyone who prefers it simple.
If you want to cook something quick, the coconut with sea salt goes chopped over salads and the pineapple with lime goes with prawns and avocado. More ideas in recipes with dried fruit.
Tardeo: what holds up away from home
For a handbag or a backpack, the single-serve bags of mango and pineapple work: soft, no fridge and, according to the pineapple page, no stains and no smell. The coconut with sea salt adds the crunch. If the plan is in the sun, leave the chocolate at home: it melts in the heat.
Movie night at home
The Family pack has 12 bags: 3 mango, 3 coconut, 2 pineapple, 2 apple and 2 coconut with nectar. Tip them into a bowl on the table. The product page says there are mild flavours, like apple or coconut, and stronger ones, like pineapple. For the end, The Dark Collection: mango, pineapple and coconut with dark chocolate, in packs of 6 × 40 g at €13.50.
