I've stopped eating fruit (and carrots, which have fruit-like levels of sugar) with the exception of tart (i.e., less sugary) cherries out of a desire to limit my fructose intake. I was eating raspberries, too, which are much lower in sugar than most fruit, but stopped because of their high levels of oxalic acid, but I do expect to restart raspberries in a few years because I expect my ability to tolerate oxalic acid in my diet to improve slowly over the next few years. (In contrast, high-fructose foods including most fruit are probably gone for good.)

Of course, I'm not asserting that everyone should do as I am doing. There is substantial variation between individuals here.
