About BLACK BEARS LICORICE FLAVORED CANDY, BLACK BEARS LICORICE
Meijer Black Bears Licorice Flavored Candy is a private-label store-brand gummy candy product from Meijer, Inc., the Michigan-based Midwest supercenter chain. These are bear-shaped gummies in a black licorice flavor profile, though the formulation uses artificial flavors rather than real licorice root extract. The primary ingredient is corn syrup, followed by sugar and modified food starch as the gelling agent. Minor ingredients (less than 2%) include mineral oil (as a surface release agent), natural and artificial flavor, carnauba wax (a plant-derived surface polish), and artificial colors Red 40, Blue 1, Yellow 5, Red 3, and Yellow 6. The black color of the gummies is achieved through this combination of synthetic colorants rather than a single black dye, as most commercial black confections are produced.
Per 100 grams, this candy provides 342 calories, 81.58 grams of carbohydrates, and zero fat and protein. The calorie content is entirely carbohydrate-derived from corn syrup and sugar. This is a high-sugar, high-calorie-density candy product. No fiber is present.
This product is free of wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, and tree nuts based on the declared ingredients. However, gelatin is not listed as an ingredient, and modified food starch is the gelling agent — meaning this product may be suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets if the starch is plant-derived (e.g., from corn or tapioca). This should be verified by the consumer. Multiple artificial colorants (Red 40, Blue 1, Yellow 5, Red 3, Yellow 6) are present. Carnauba wax is a plant-derived ingredient from the carnauba palm, used as a confectioner's glaze. Mineral oil is a food-grade release agent. No artificial preservatives are declared.
