About BREADED CALAMARI RINGS

Kroger Breaded Calamari Rings are a frozen seafood appetizer product sold under the Kroger private label of The Kroger Co., available at Kroger, Ralph's, King Soopers, Fred Meyer, Harris Teeter, and City Market stores. Calamari rings are cross-sectional slices of squid mantle coated in a batter and breadcrumb system, then pre-fried or par-fried and frozen for home preparation.

Calamari (squid) is the primary ingredient. The breading system uses a blend of bleached wheat flour, vegetable oil (soybean, corn, and/or cottonseed), water, enriched wheat flour (with niacin, reduced iron, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, and folic acid), and modified corn starch. Minor ingredients include yellow corn flour, salt, sugar, a dried cheese powder component (containing pasteurized milk, cheese cultures, salt, enzymes, cultured nonfat milk, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, whey, sodium citrate, and salt) — this cheese powder component contains partially hydrogenated soybean oil, flagging a potential legacy trans-fat source. Additional minor ingredients include dextrose, sodium tripolyphosphate and sodium hexametaphosphate as phosphate moisture retainers, maltodextrin, egg whites, leavening agents, corn starch, soybean oil, partially hydrogenated soybean oil (again flagging trans-fat risk), yeast, spices, whey, nonfat dry milk, disodium inosinate and disodium guanylate as flavor enhancers (nucleotide additives derived from meat/fish or fermentation), and extractives of paprika.

Allergens include wheat, dairy (cheese powder, whey, nonfat dry milk), eggs (egg whites), soy (soybean oil), and fish/seafood (calamari). The presence of two partially hydrogenated oil mentions in minor ingredients warrants attention. Per 100 grams, this product provides 238 calories, 10.71 grams of protein, 20.24 grams of carbohydrates, 11.9 grams of fat, and no fiber. Calorie density is moderate-high.
