Big fan of dried fruit even though the sugar content of dried fruits is high.
Among the different types of dried fruits, my favorite is dried mangoes. I discovered the dried mangoes from Thailand which was spicy and saltier than the regular variety. I was surprised that it was available at a nearby grocery. I bought two packs.
Much to my dismay, these dried mangoes were neither spicy nor salty. These were just regular dried mangoes despite the advertising in the packaging.
What a disappointment! What was a purchase that turned into a disappointment for you?

I used to eat a lot of dried fruit. I'm not into salt but enjoy a good sugar in things. Lying on packages should be outlawed.
I ordered something for dinner and when it got here I wasn't hungry for it anymore. Can't return it.

@allen0187 ........I ordered an enchilada and rice with fried beans. It looked good but I'm no longer in the mood. Maybe later.

They are really good.
I mean really really good.
Mango and chilli is a match made in heaven
But your pack was neither salty or spicy.
What a bummer.

I love dried fruit but try to get the no-sugar-added variety... Not Diet. Those taste nasty! Just the ones without added sugar. Those are good... I like dried peaches, dried apricots, dried apples, dried cherries and dried bananas. 
I've tried dried mangoes but wasn't impressed with them.

No sugar or diet drinks are a scam if you ask me. Doesn't taste like the real thing and is nowhere near the benefits that they offer since it is sugar-free or is a diet-version.
