How the numbers are taken. Amounts are per 100 g of the edible part, from USDA FoodData Central (SR Legacy, public domain), in the state named — raw, boiled, roasted and so on. Percentages use the FDA Daily Values for adults and children aged 4 and over, set around a 2,000-calorie diet; your own needs can be different. This site compares amounts — it does not give diet or medical advice. Sources and limits.

What is being compared

This page compares cherries and grapes as USDA FoodData Central lists them: “Cherries, sweet, raw” (FDC 171719) and “Grapes, red or green (European type, such as Thompson seedless), raw” (FDC 174683). All figures start from 100 grams of the edible part.

Per 100 grams

Per 100 grams, cherries has more protein (1.1 vs 0.72 g), fat (0.2 vs 0.16 g), fiber (2.1 vs 0.9 g, 2.3 times as much), potassium (222 vs 191 mg), calcium (13 vs 10 mg), magnesium (11 vs 7 mg, 1.6 times as much) and vitamin C (7 vs 3.2 mg, 2.2 times as much). Grapes has more calories (69 vs 63 kcal), saturated fat (0.05 vs 0.04 g), carbohydrate (18.1 vs 16 g), sugars (15.5 vs 12.8 g) and sodium (2 vs 0 mg, against none). They are within 3% of each other for cholesterol, iron and vitamin A.

Per serving

A serving as USDA measures it is 1 label serving (NLEA) of cherries (140 g) and 1 label serving (NLEA) of grapes (126 g). The two servings weigh about the same, so the per-serving picture follows the per-100 g one closely. No nutrient changes leader when you switch from 100 g to servings. One serving is 88.2 kcal of cherries against 86.9 kcal of grapes.

For the same calories

To get 100 kcal you would eat 159 g of cherries or 145 g of grapes. At that equal energy, cherries carries 1.7 g of protein and grapes 1 g. Fiber per 100 kcal is 3.3 g against 1.3 g. Measured per 100 kcal, every nutrient keeps the same leader as per 100 g.

Where the calories come from

Roughly, 6% of the energy in cherries comes from protein, 3% from fat and 91% from carbohydrate; for grapes it is 4%, 2% and 94%. These shares use the general 4, 9 and 4 kcal per gram and can differ slightly from USDA's own energy factors.

Against the Daily Value

1 label serving (NLEA) of cherries reaches its largest shares of the Daily Value in vitamin C (11%), fiber (11%) and carbohydrate (8%); 1 label serving (NLEA) of grapes reaches its largest shares of the Daily Value in carbohydrate (8%), potassium (5%) and vitamin C (4%). Daily Values are the FDA label reference amounts for adults and children aged 4 and over, set around a 2,000-calorie diet; they are a yardstick for reading labels, not a target for any one person.
