About BUTTER LARGE BEANS, BUTTER
Meijer Butter Large Beans are a canned bean product in the canned and bottled beans category, sold under the Meijer store brand by Meijer, Inc. 'Butter beans' is the common American term for large lima beans (Phaseolus lunatus), a legume with a creamy, buttery texture when cooked. This product consists of prepared (cooked) large lima beans in water, with minimal additives.
Prepared lima beans and water are the primary ingredients. Minor components (each at less than 2%) include sugar (a small quantity), salt, calcium chloride (a firming agent that helps maintain the bean's structural integrity in canning), and calcium disodium EDTA (added to promote color retention — prevents the beans from discoloring during storage). The EDTA is a synthetic chelating agent approved for food use. No HFCS, artificial flavors, artificial colors beyond EDTA, or preservatives are declared. Based on declared ingredients, this product is suitable for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free dietary patterns. No wheat, dairy, eggs, nuts, or soy are declared.

Fiber is 3.80 grams per 100 grams, consistent with lima beans' moderate fiber content. The calorie density is low, and the protein-to-calorie ratio is favorable for a plant-based protein source. This product is not suitable for very low-carbohydrate diets, but represents a nutritionally dense, low-fat legume option in the Meijer canned bean line.
