I know exactly the brand you're talking about on the sweet potato kale thing. And the image on the pouch is of course sweet potatoes and kale too! False advertising, pissed me right off.
In addition to the sweetness acting as a preservative as others have mentioned, apple puree is also a cheap filler. Compare what you paid for your last squeeze pouch or tiny puree cup to a giant jar of applesauce and voilà.
On Amazon at this very moment, I'm finding pouches for about $0.34/oz and puree cups for $0.14-30/oz, while a big ol' jar of applesauce is $0.09/oz.
Eventually we just started throwing stuff in a blender of our own. The markup on these things is truly bonkers.
