Unlike most fruits, quince is generally not eaten raw due to its bitter and acid taste. Thus, they are often processed and consumed cooked or as fruit liquor, syrup, jam or jelly. For those case it is always important to be careful with the sugar content of the food. When quince is consumed cooked with a small amount of sugar, it is recommended to eat one medium size fruit, added of only 10 grams of sugar per day.
