The processes by which the two "hit the bloodstream" are quite different. For example, an apple has fiber and phytonutrients which slow the absorption of glucose. Whole fruits are so unlike processed breakfast cereals, I think it's a stretch to say their metabolization is identical.

yep, but 100i/h for 1h vs 10i/h for 10h is the same amount of energy in the end. I didn't mean to say the metabolization is the same at all, and absolutely fibre makes a huge difference, but that's a different macro nutrient from the sugar (fructose/glucose) content.
