An official serving of fruit is 60 calories, so use that as a guideline - especially sine "2 or 3" is a fairly useless concept since the calories for 2-3 cranberries will be vastly different from 2-3 apricots.

(For those who are thinking "but an apple is 90 calories!", you're right, it is. In cases like that, 1 piece is not the same as 1 serving, just as 1 grape is not a serving of grapes.)

Interesting question - I'm not quite sure how you'd compute that. Are calories an issue for you? Dried fruit is portable and non-perishable, but can pack a lot more calories when compared with the same serving size of it's fresh fruit counterpart.

I would consider it to be the same as fresh fruit.
Unless you are looking at apple slices. But you can get some fruit in 1/2 fruit sizes.
I personally would just go calorie wise. It is easier.
Just be careful because sugar wise, even natural sugar, you can get too much. And with dried fruit it doesn't seem like you are getting much but it is so concentrated.
If you need it calorieking.com has a good calorie counter.
