About Cherries, sweet, canned, pitted, heavy syrup, drained
Sweet cherries in heavy syrup, drained, are soft, very sweet, and a far cry from the taut snap of a fresh cherry. The syrup infuses the fruit during canning, so even drained versions carry more sugar than you might expect. Fiber is present but modest. These work as a topping for cheesecake or in a quick pan sauce for pork, where their sweetness and slight richness add depth. Fresh sweet cherries are always better when available, but canned ones have their uses.
