[Review] Hunza Apricots

Dried apricots have always been wrinkly and bright orange but deep down in my mind, I remember trying dried apricots which look like dried figs.
While I was at an International grocery store, I spotted these Hunza apricots by Yekta Foods which were the exact apricots that I tried. They look like dried figs, pale and hard.
According to the internet, they are left on trees to dry before being harvested from wild apricot trees in Hunza valley in Kashmir from Afghanistan and Turkey.
Although you are meant to soak them or add them to casseroles, I ate them as a snacks and the taste is heavenly because it like caramel and toffee.
When you get to the middle, there is a stone which has an almond inside so don't throw it away.
Simply crack it open and eat the almond.
The almond itself was surprisingly fragrant as well as the apricot the almond was shockingly good and different to the almonds that you get in the packets which lack almond aroma and taste.

Tried the Emmi Swiss yogurts which has six flavours: aloe vera, pineapple, raspberry, apple apricot and blueberry.
Aloe vera and raspberry tasted the best. The pineapple was slightly sour.

Sugar apricots

Tried these sugar apricots, which are really small and cute, they are slightly smaller than a ping pong ball.
In general they are sweet as claimed on their packaging.
The firmer ones are slightly starchy, whereas the softer ones are sweet and juicy.
The apricot does not stick to the stone which makes it really convenient to eat.
