## About <!--about-->
Del Monte Very Cherry is a fruit salad in light fruit juice syrup with natural and artificial flavour, sold in Canada in a 540 mL resealable plastic jar marked Fancy Grade, with a bilingual English and French Nutrition Facts table.[^off-photos] CanGro Foods of Canada launched the Del Monte fruit-in-a-jar range in November 2007, listing Very Cherry among its six varieties.[^packaging-gateway] The company adopted the name Del Monte Canada in 2010.[^sun-2012] Barcodepedia already listed this barcode as a 540 ml plastic jar in 2008.[^bp-2008] Its ingredient list has not been transcribed, because Open Food Facts holds only front and nutrition photos.[^off]

ConAgra Foods bought Del Monte Canada in 2012 and sold the Canadian Del Monte processed fruit business to Bonduelle in 2018.[^sun-2012][^conagra-2018] Bonduelle's unit became Nortera in 2022, and Nortera now licenses the Del Monte brand in Canada.[^nortera-2022][^nortera-brands]
