appeal/attraction

Sweet desserts don't have any appeal/attraction to me. I prefer fruit.

Do both appeal and attraction work with(should I use in or with here???) the above wording? If yes, are they synonyms? Are there more equivalents? Thanks.

Thanks, Jain.

But what's wrong with the original sentences?
