Litchis, dried

Dried litchis come in at 74 of 100, a Good band score that ranks 33rd of 60 in the fruits and juices category. The headline nutrient is vitamin C at a striking 203% DV, backed by potassium at 24% DV, dietary fiber at 16%, and magnesium at 10%.

These are eaten as a chewy, raisin-like snack, with a single dried fruit weighing only about 3 grams, so a handful is the realistic portion. The honest caveat is sugar: dried litchis carry 66.1 grams of sugar per 100 grams, a natural consequence of drying down the fruit's own sugars, and the score falls short of the category median of 81, with sapodilla ranking higher for a similar chewy dried-fruit swap.
