If you want a small portion without weighing it out yourself, individual boxes are handy: Albert Heijn lists 10 portions of 14 g, while Jumbo lists 14 portions of 14 g. Choose a fruit mix only if its ingredients suit you; the AH mixes with apple or apricot included in our research contain sulphites. A larger bag is an alternative if you want to portion it yourself, but it’s not the same as a ready-made multipack.
You want a small snack before exercising and are thinking about when to eat it, portion size and what you find comfortable to eat. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre suggests eating something small before exercise as an option; this isn’t a promise about sports performance.

Bear in mind: the number of portions varies, although both packs contain small 14 g boxes.
Choose this if: you’d like apple or apricot pieces alongside raisins. The AH Hamsterchef varieties included in our research contain 10 portions of 14 g.

Choose this if: you want to prepare portions for several occasions. Packs included in our research include PLUS Sultana raisins at 375 g, ALDI raisins at 500 g and Dirk raisins at 750 g.
Bear in mind: you’ll need to weigh out the portions yourself and take a suitable container with you.
