About BLUE RASPBERRY FLAVORED CANDY CANES, BLUE RASPBERRY
Meijer Blue Raspberry Flavored Candy Canes is a multi-variety candy cane product sold under the Meijer private label, containing three distinct candy cane types in one package: peppermint-flavored red and white candy canes, peppermint-flavored red, white, and green candy canes, and fruit-flavored candy canes. Each variety has its own ingredient list. The peppermint varieties share a base of sugar, corn syrup, natural peppermint flavor, FD&C Red 40, glycerin, canola oil, and sunflower lecithin, with FD&C Blue 1 and Yellow 5 added for the tricolor variant. The fruit-flavored canes use glucose syrup, citric acid, sodium citrate, artificial and natural flavors, glycerin, and multiple synthetic dyes (Red 40, Blue 1, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, and Amaranth). Amaranth (Red 2) is a synthetic colorant.
All varieties are high in sugar. Per 100 grams: 400 calories, 0.0g protein, 104.0g carbohydrates, 0.0g fat, no fiber. The carbohydrate content exceeding 100g per 100g may reflect a data entry artifact or rounding convention in the USDA system. Serving size is 12.5g.
No major allergens are declared, though sunflower lecithin (an emulsifier) and the various glycerin sources should be noted by consumers with strict dietary requirements. The product contains multiple synthetic dyes including Amaranth (Red 2), which is banned in the United States as a food dye since 1976 — its presence here may indicate an error in the USDA ingredient record or a non-US import formulation. Blue 1, Red 40, Yellow 5, and Yellow 6 are all currently approved synthetic dyes in the US. This is a seasonal candy product.
