About BLACK CHERRY LIGHT NONFAT YOGURT, BLACK CHERRY
Meijer Purple Cow Black Cherry Light Nonfat Yogurt is a reduced-calorie, nonfat cultured dairy product sold under Meijer's Purple Cow sub-brand, which is positioned as the company's value-oriented or kid-friendly product tier. The base is cultured pasteurized grade-A nonfat milk, with water and modified food starch providing volume and texture. Sweetening is achieved through a combination of fructose, sucralose, and acesulfame potassium, indicating this is a light product formulated to reduce caloric content relative to standard sugar-sweetened yogurts. Cherries appear further down the ingredient list, supplemented by natural flavor. Potassium sorbate is used as a preservative, and artificial colors Blue 1 and Red 40 are present, which may be of concern to consumers avoiding synthetic colorants.
At 53 calories per 100 grams, this is a low-calorie yogurt. The macronutrient breakdown per 100g is 2.94g protein, 10.59g carbohydrates, and 0.0g fat. The use of carrageenan as a thickener is standard in nonfat dairy products, though some consumers prefer to avoid this additive. The product is also fortified with calcium phosphate, vitamin A palmitate, and vitamin D3. No fiber is present. The calorie density is low, consistent with its light product positioning.
Allergens include dairy (milk). This product is not suitable for vegans and is not gluten-free. The presence of artificial sweeteners (sucralose and acesulfame potassium) and artificial colors (Blue 1, Red 40) distinguishes this light formulation from the standard Meijer-branded yogurt line. Consumers seeking yogurt without artificial additives would be better served by Meijer's organic line.
