Consider this me starting late lent. I want to try out manifold for personal accountability.
I arbitrarily define sweets as foods with >10% sugar content or drinks with >5% sugar content.
Fresh fruit is fine but dried fruit is candy.
I'm usually quite good at sticking with these kinds of self-discipline things so I dare you to bet against me. I will resolve honestly.

@BenjaminIkuta I think since it's more condensed, it's easier to eat large amounts of it which could be really high in sugar
@audrey But they're also harder, so they take longer to chew. Also that's kinda weird criteria. Nutritionally they're the same?
@BenjaminIkuta Perhaps, but it does align with the >10% sugar rule considering most fresh fruits seem to be around 10% sugar. dried fruits can be upwards of 50%, similar to the percentage of a candy bar. although by this rule some fruits like mangoes wouldn't be allowed, even fresh
