INTRODUCTION :

This page contains several 'food content' tables for fruits.

  • Fruits, raw
  • Fruits, frozen
  • Fruits, canned
  • Fruits, sauce
  • Fruits, dried
  • Fruits, juice

The table data, in any row, below, comes from one of three sources.

  1. Actual "Nutrition Facts" labels from food packaging. These labels do not contain water content data, and frequently the data is imprecise.

  2. A gram counter book - "Dr. Atkins' New Carbohydrate Gram Counter" --- which, like essentially all gram-counter books, does not contain data on sugarS-content nor on water-content.

  3. The web site www.nutritiondata.com --- which (in 2006) contained suitably precise data on sugar-content and water-content, as well as the usual "Nutrition Facts" data.

    In fact, it contained data on types of sugars, fats, and proteins in each food.

In the tables below, the numbers between less-than and greater-than signs --- namely <1>, <2>, <3> --- are used after the 'Product Name' (in the 1st column of the table) to indicate the source of the data in the row.

"Reference 2" (or "ref. 2" or "<2>") below refers to the book "Dr. Atkins' New Carbohydrate Gram Counter".

The last five columns in these tables (percent fiber, net-carbs, fats, proteins, moisture) add up to about 100% in most cases.

Since data on water content is not in "Nutrition Facts" labels nor in most gram counter books, some rows of the table do not have data on water-content (moisture).

(The percent-sugarS is included in the percent-net-carbs --- so do NOT include sugarS-percent if you are adding up the percentages to get an estimate of solids-content versus water-content.)


A NOTE on unusual fruits:

One very unusual "fruit" is the avocado. Like a mango or a peach, it has a single large central seed.

But the avocado is HIGH in fat and LOW in sugar, whereas most fruits, like the mango and the peach, are LOW in fat and HIGH in sugar. In other words ...

The avocado is very high in fats --- more like a nut or a seed than like a fruit (or a vegetable). And an avocado is low in sugars --- more like a vegetable than a fruit in that respect.

A similar "unusual fruit" is the olive. The olive is about the size of a cherry and has a single central seed of similar size to the cherry seed. But, unlike the cherry (or other fruits), the olive is high in fat(s) content --- and extremely low in sugarS content.


NOTE on UNIQUENESS of these TABLES :

These tables differ from tables in essentially all "gram counter" books in several ways.

  • Serving sizes are shown in grams --- rather than cups, tablespoons, piece-count, etc.

  • This allows for computation of PERCENT-content ("intensity") of the basic nutrients of food labels --- sugarS, fiber, net-carbs, fats, proteins.

    This, in turn, allows us to better compare foods and food-groups for their relative contribution of these nutrients.

    In other words, by using percentages, we get rid of the variablity due to different serving sizes.

  • Many gram-counter books present only two or three of the five "Nutrition Facts" components --- sugarS, fiber, net-carbs (carbs-minus-fiber-carbs), fats, proteins.

  • These tables show both sugars and net-carbs. This allows you to see how much of the net-carbs is due to sugars.

  • Water (moisture) content is presented.

  • We can use this data to "take the water out the picture" --- that is, we can calculate the percent of sugar/fiber/net-carbs/fats/proteins based on the dry weight of the food.

    This would REALLY "normalize" the data and provide for "apples to apples" comparisons, so to speak, of different foods and food groups.

The PERCENT-content data of these tables (and the observations made based upon those percentages) distinguish this site from the www.nutritiondata.com site.


Some Usage Notes for these tables:

In the tables, "g" denotes grams.

"NA" means the data is not available from the source --- such as from a "Nutrition Facts" label or a gram-counter book.

In many web browsers, when you hold the mouse cursor (pointer) over a cell in these tables, a pop-up will tell you what type of data the cell contains --- NetCarb-grams, Percent-SugarS, or whatever.

This helps when the table heading is not in view.

ADDITIONAL DATA SOURCES :

Most of the data for these tables comes from either

  1. the "Nutrition Facts" labels on food packages, or

  2. "gram counter" books like "Dr. Atkins' New Carbohydrate Gram Counter", or

  3. the web site www.nutritiondata.com .

"<1>" with the 'Product Name', in column 1 of the tables, indicates that the data comes from a "Nutrition Facts" label.

"<2>" in column 1 indicates the data comes from the Atkins Carb Gram Counter book.

"<3>" in column 1 indicates the data comes from the web site www.nutritiondata.com.

Much of the data from 'nutritiondata.com' comes from U.S. Department of Agriculture studies of 'macronutrients' --- at the USDA FNIC (Food and Nutrition Information Center).

Since the data in reference <3> is the most complete and the most precise, we use that data wherever possible.

But to corroborate that data (or at least indicate that it is "in the ballpark"), we include data from "Nutrition Facts" labels and data from the Atkins Gram Counter book.

Note, however, that

  1. The Atkins book did NOT break out "sugars" grams from "net carbs" --- apparently because Atkins feels that starches and sugars contribute equally to weight-gain, even though sugars are converted to triglycerides and fat somewhat more quickly than starch.

    So there is no "sugars" data in the rows marked with a "<2>".

  2. The Atkins book, like essentially all gram counter books, did NOT provide the serving size in grams --- instead leaving the size in cups or tablespoons or a piece-count.

    In most cases, estimates have to be made of the number of grams in the sample/serving size, in order to calculate percentages.

    Hence, we use "est." in the serving size (column 2) to indicate when an estimate was used to compute the percentages in rows marked with a "<2>".

    And we use an asterisk (*) in front of the percentages, to indicate that an estimated gram-size of the serving was used to compute the percentage.


NOTE that the accuracy of these tables is not guaranteed --- especially since the data may come from sources that may, in fact, be in error --- for example, typographical errors (theirs or mine).

Also, data from food labels, such as fat grams, may be truncated-to-zero due to the manufacturer/packager choosing a small serving size and/or an "aggressive rounding" method.

FURTHERMORE, the 'nutritiondata.com' site may eventually become 'monetized' and become a nuisance to navigate --- and may no longer have the 'food content' data that was there in 2006.

Also, it may be a long time (years or never) before I get back to this page to add more (and better) data.

So here are some links to WEB SEARCHES for additional data on 'basic food contents' of FRUITS.

Also, you can go to suitable Wikipedia pages and follow links from there, such as
