The Gourmet-O-Matic tm Fruits Substitutions Guide

By and large, fruits add mostly sweet and acid to foods. The individual fruit determines the relative amounts of each.

For example, lime and lemon act more as acids adding mostly sour to food. Other fruits, e.g., dates and figs, add more sweet than acid flavor.

Please note the following in the Fruit Substitutions Charts that follow:

1. There are some "Total Sugars" values in red. They were calculated values from the USDA data. The ones in black were supplied by USDA.
2. Some juices and nectars are included in the list for those who want to add them to change the consistency and flavor of an item, e.g., side dish or marinade.
3. Note that foods not normally considered fruits, such as avocados and olives are on the list. Fact is, both are actually fruits. If it has seeds and a fleshy covering, it is a fruit, scientifically speaking.
4. Caloric content is provided for each item. A gourmet cook who is trying to keep track of the Calories he, she or his/her family consumes, might opt for a lower Calorie choice in lieu of a higher Calorie choice. For example, the fresh fruit may be preferred for its lower Calorie content over the dried fruit.
5. Fruits are first listed in descending order of Total Sugar content per 100 grams. 100 grams = a bit under 1/4 pound (22% of a pound, actually) or 3.5 ounces. This gives you an idea of relative sweetness.
6. An alphabetical listing of fruits follows the examples of substitutions. The examples appear after the first chart.

The Gourmet-O-Matic tm approach is to create interesting meals that are as healthy as possible. This is consistent with the philosophy of The FitnessMed tm Guide To Healthy Eating. Keeping the number of Calories consumed lower is in concert with that, for most people.

As with all Gourmet-O-Matic tm Substitutions Guides, the following list is non-exhaustive. It comprises foods that are readily available.

The data are derived from the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference.

Examples using fruit substitutions follow the chart.

Example - substitute a fresh fruit with its dried counterpart to increase the sweetness and change the texture of a dish.

Example - substitute the mango in the Mango-Papaya Relish dish with pineapple to make Pineapple-Papaya Relish or use peaches and raisins to make Peach-Raisin Relish.
