What the AI looks for in Dried Mixed Fruit

Composition
Check the order of ingredients; cheap mixes are padded with raisins or sweetened papaya and pineapple. The first-listed fruit dominates the mix.
Candied vs dried
Fruitcake 'mixed fruit' is candied in syrup and dyed; snack mixes are simply dried. They are not interchangeable in recipes.
Added sugar
Tropical mixes are usually sugar-infused. This sharply raises sugar per serving.

Brands that matter

  • Sun-Maid: California dried mixed fruit.

What to avoid
