About Fruit cocktail, canned, heavy syrup, drained
Fruit cocktail is a canned medley of diced fruits, typically peaches, pears, pineapple, grapes and a few cherries, packed in liquid, here a heavy sugar syrup. It is a nostalgic, ready-to-eat mix that needs nothing more than a spoon.
Drained, it is about 70 calories per 100 grams, almost all carbohydrate, with around 17 grams of sugar, a good share of it from the syrup. The fruit brings small amounts of vitamin C and fiber, but the heavy-syrup pack is sweeter than the fresh fruit it is made from.
It is an easy dessert or side, on its own, folded into gelatin or whipped cream for the classic ambrosia, or spooned over yogurt and cottage cheese. Versions canned in juice or light syrup keep the sugar lower.
