Does it make a difference that it's natural sugar instead of refined?

Funny you ask that: I was contemplating going and getting a candy bar, then remembering I had an apple. I was just thinking...this has just as much sugar ...

Did some research and fruit sugar is mostly fructose while refined sugars are mostly sucrose. Fructose apparently breaks down more slowly than sucrose resulting in fewer calories.
