Reply:Eating canned fruit is not a good idea because it does have a higher sugar content and is sometimes filled with additives and preservatives to prolong the shelf life. I suggest if you are trying to consume foods that are healthier, that you just pay the extra change and get what is good for you in the long run. Canned anything is not completely the greatest for you. You may just want to go ahead and purchase fresh fruits from your local farmers market or fruit stand. It is less expensive than buying them out the grocery store.
