Think heavy in preservatives...fruit sealed in a cup with enough
preservatives added will last a long time on the shelf.

What part of 'package' did you not understand? Fruit cups or gelatin cups
come in one package which has only one label. The 'made in xxxx' means
that the contents of the package were made in xxxx and we can assume that
the packaging was also. Unless xxxx imports the packaging materials from
yyyy country. In which case the label would indicate that the contents of
the cups were made in xxxx and the packaging materials were made in yyyy.
