How to split different field values into separate fields

Hello Everyone, I have a field in this format and this information is fetched from a json array.

Label 
apple 1
apple 2
apple 3
banana 1
banana 2
banana 3

 

How can I split this in 

ApplesBananas 
apple 1 banana 1
apple 2banana 2
apple 3banana 3

 

I'm not able to identify what character to use in the split function.I have read various solutions on this page but none of them match this situation. 

Thanks in advance for any help you provide.

Given that you cannot identify the split character, and you have the benefit of being able to see the data, how do you expect us to be able to do any better?

Having said that, assuming the split character is a white space, try something like this

| rex field=Label "(?<fruit>\S+)"
| eval {fruit}=Label
| streamstats count as row by fruit
| stats values(*) as * by row
| fields - row fruit Label
