Fresh Fruits Highest in Fructose:
Grapes – 7.6g
Apple – 7.6g
Pears – 6.4g
Cherries – 6.2g
Pomegranate – 4.7g
Kiwi – 4.3g
Blackberries – 4.1g
Blueberries – 3.7g
Watermelon – 3.3g
Raspberries – 3.2g
Starfruit – 3.2g
Purple Passion Fruit – 3.1g
the differenc is you don't drink them out of a can.
i pretty much avoid most fruits as we'll because of the high sugar content but at least fruit has some vitamins and fiber..... Generally speaking though I lump all simple sugars together.
