Is canned fruit OK for gout?
In moderation, though a few brands rate Good. Of the 21 products here, 4 rate Good and 17 Moderate. 12 of the 17 below Good are held there by ultra-processing. The processing class comes from Open Food Facts, product by product, so two near-identical recipes can rate differently. The best-rated is Del Monte No Sugar Added Diced Pear Cups (B, Good).
Each brand is rated from its own label against GoutSafe's purine and fructose data.

The first pick is the best-rated product, and each other pick is the best-rated product that earns a distinct role, such as the lowest purine or no added sugar.
