Going over sugar goal for fruits?

My daily sugar goal is 27g. I like to eat a piece of fruit with my coffee every morning. For example, this morning I ate an apple and it had 19g of sugar. How are you supposed to have your full servings of fruit a day without going over your sugar goal for the day? (ex. an apple and a banana would put me over by alot!)
Should I ignore the sugar goal when it comes to fruit? What do you guys do? Otherwise, I'd always come in under my goal.

Don't stress it. Only count your ADDED sugar.

The MFP sugar limit is meaningless0

Only count processed sugars -- just ignore the sugar entry in any fruit or vegetables you eat!0
