If you go in a supermarket in EU almost every food product contains sugar.

That just means that the item contains sugars. It doesn't mean that we've added sugars to it. A fresh apple has sugar. A fresh tomato has sugar. Many if not most fruits and vegetables do. It shouldn't be a surprise that the canned/frozen varieties have a bit of sugar on the label.

If the label contains sugar, it was added and not inclusive of other whole ingredients. You can buy canned apples (ingredients :apples) and canned apples (ingredients :water, sugar, apples). Guess which costs more.

Why would you buy canned apples without sugar or vinegar as conservatives in the first place?

The pure apple in a can can't last for long.

I hate to be the pedant, but I think you meant preservatives. I kept imagining Mitt Romney in a tub with sliced apples and it was unnerving to say the least

In many European languages preservative is the word for condom.

The nutrition label will tell you if it contains sugar even though none was added.

If the ingredient list contains sugar, it was added.
