UGH!!! We just got a shipment of the yummiest oranges from Florida. I know... eat sparingly... but when would be the best time of the day to have one?

I'd day earlier on in the day, or perhaps right before an afternoon workout?

yes .... or right after a difficult resistance training session when your body is primed to burn carbs and replace muscle glycogen.
Or at your feed meal.

Thanks for this list. I didn't realise cherries were high sugar . . . had 4 in my shake yesterday.

4 should be fine - when you want to use a high sugar fruit you just have to use 1/2 a handful instead of a full handful per 100 lbs.

Passion fruit has 229 cal and 55g carbs per cup - so definitely High sugar
Pomegranate has 72 cal and 16 g carbs per 1/2 cup of arils - so more like a Medium sugar

Darn, I love prunes and raisins and dried apricots! How about mandarins - we have heaps on our tree which will be ripe very soon.

Mandarins are oranges - so they are medium sugar and should be used sparingly.
