Fruit by the Foot

I saw one of the individual packets not for sale, in the common area. I had never seen r had it before. I asked a colleague if he had it. He said its good, he likes it but its very sweet. I was very pleassantly surprised to open it and find a parchment paper kind of roll with thin fruit strip stuck onto it. Yes its sweet, thats the dominant taste with some fruit tang.
Reminded me of fruit leather like Naturo Mango bar or Mango papad. Why dont we have preservatives other than sugar or salt that are good for health?
