About Cherries, tart, dried, sweetened (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program)
Sweetened dried tart cherries are a sugar-forward product. Tart cherries on their own are quite sour, and significant sugar is added during the drying process to make them palatable as a snack. The result is mostly carbohydrate by weight, with fiber still present but unable to do much to temper the sugar load. Fat and protein are both low. They are widely used in trail mix, granola bars, salads, and baked goods. The tart cherry flavor does come through even with sweetening, distinguishing them from sweeter dried fruit like raisins.
