This recipe comes from the recipe box of my Grandmother Eynard. My father was diabetic and she was always trying to make tasty desserts. This fruit salad is tasty even for those who aren’t diabetic. Be sure to use the cook and serve version of the pudding. It sets up much better.

This recipe s very deceiving. I am on Insulin and looking at the amount of sugar it is way to high for me to even try making this salad. Where did you think that this is ok for the sugar content.

Might want to change the name to “No Sugar Added Fruit Salad”.

alittle deceiving… all that fruit is HIGH in sugar–for those who are on a reduced sugar diet

You bring up a good point. I guess just because it does not have added sugar doesn’t mean it is truly sugar free.
