Freeze Dried Fruit points?
Okay so I picked up a packet of freeze dried fruit. The only ingredient is the fruit. e-tools says it's 1 point for 1/3 an oz but if it's fruit and fruit is free why isn't this
|
It might have to do with the fact that dried fruit is a higher concentration of sugar?
|
The same is true of regularly dried fruit with nothing added.
The reasoning I've heard is that it is a lot easier to eat multiple servings of dried fruit than fresh. For example, if hungry, you're likely to eat one apple. But that same volume in dried will be 3 apples. Hence, more calories, which ultimately is what it's all about. Fresh gives you the benefit of water, your body having to break the food fibers down, etc. which dried does not. |
Only fresh fruits are 0 Points.
Dried fruit and fruit juices are counted as Points. |
Thanks everyone!
