Typically, the higher the water content of the food, the more perishable it is. Bacteria can only breed in foods with a high water content, which is why substances such as honey, golden syrup, sugar, butter, lard and oil have a long shelf-life. (Those listed are either more than 99.9% sugar, or fat). Clearly, fruits have a far higher water content than this, allowing bacteria to breed. However, this does not take into account the various ways of preserving foods, such as freezing, canning, bottling, drying etc...
