To say fruit is flavored sugar with fiber when comparing it to candy is an oversimplification. Eating candy you can consume 1,000 calories with almost no effort. Good luck eating 15 cups of raspberries to get to that 1,000 calories. Who would do that? And the candy has no nutrition in it while raspberries have lots of vitamins, minerals and as you said fiber.
The bottom line is that our society eats too much sugar, fat and salt and we’d be better off eating less.
