Taste
"I assure you, this is every bit as tasty as anything you'll find in the candy aisle in your local store. The figs make up a majority of this candy as they provide a wonderful deep fruity flavor that will grow on you"
"I’ve tried all the Figamajigs varieties and the ones with the colorful panned candy shells were my favorite because the shell is quite crunchy and adds another level of texture. The center is figgy and soft with a nice dense chew like a good fudge. You definitely taste more fig than chocolate, which is a good thing since both flavors compliment each other so well."-candyaddict.com Review
Health Aspect
“fig has also gained the reputation for being “the fitness fruit” because of its combination of fiber, minerals, and nutrients that surpasses all other fruits. In this chocolate covered fig bar, you get the benefit of four grams of fiber as well as a healthy dose of antioxidants from the dark chocolate. If you go for the Figamajig with almonds, you get an additional gram of protein. “-Official Site
“We can indulge in Figamjigs and not spend the whole time rationalizing our choice with the little snack devil that resides on our shoulder.”-Rarefindincs.com Review
