About BLUEBERRY LIGHT NONFAT YOGURT, BLUEBERRY
Meijer Purple Cow Blueberry Light Nonfat Yogurt (USDA ID 1361906) is a reduced-calorie, artificially sweetened nonfat yogurt sold under Meijer's Purple Cow sub-brand. The base is cultured pasteurized grade-A nonfat milk, with water and modified food starch providing body. Fructose is the primary sugar-based sweetener, supplemented by sucralose and acesulfame potassium as non-nutritive sweeteners. Blueberries and natural flavor deliver the fruit character. Carrageenan and pectin serve as stabilizers. Calcium phosphate provides mineral fortification. Potassium sorbate preserves freshness. Citric acid adjusts acidity. Artificial colors Blue 1 and Red 40 create the blueberry visual appearance. Vitamin A palmitate and vitamin D3 are standard fortification additions.
At 53 calories per 100 grams, this is a low-calorie nonfat light yogurt. Per 100g: 2.94g protein, 10.59g carbohydrates, 0.0g fat, no fiber. The dual artificial sweetener system (sucralose and acesulfame potassium) reduces caloric content while maintaining sweetness perception. The use of Blue 1 and Red 40 for blueberry coloring distinguishes this from the non-light Meijer blueberry yogurt variants that use natural vegetable-based colorants.
Allergens include dairy (nonfat milk). Not vegan. No gluten ingredients are declared. The artificial colors and non-nutritive sweeteners are the primary distinguishing characteristics of the Purple Cow light line versus standard Meijer-brand yogurts. Potassium sorbate as a preservative is standard in the Purple Cow light yogurt range. Consumers preferring natural ingredients would be better served by Meijer's organic or standard non-light yogurt options.
