Read the food description

Cherry type, packing liquid and drained status all identify the food. An unspecified canned survey record should not be treated as a specifically water-packed sour cherry.

These are source reference values. A specific brand, recipe or portion can differ. Total sugar is distinct from carbohydrate and should not be relabeled as added sugar.
