Greengages are a type of plum. This entry describes the fruit stewed with water and added sugar. The main nutrient provided is carbohydrate, with 21g per 100g, all recorded as sugars. This preparation provides 347 kJ of energy, 0.1g of fat and 280mg of potassium per 100g. It also contains small amounts of protein and several vitamins and minerals.
The sugar content includes both sugars naturally present in the fruit and sugar added during cooking; the figures do not distinguish between them. This is worth noting when considering sugar or energy intake. Potassium contributes to normal nerve and muscle function. Full nutritional figures are provided in the tables below.
