About CHEESE AND CARAMEL POPCORN MIX, CHEESE AND CARAMEL
Meijer Cheese and Caramel Popcorn Mix is a private-label snack product sold under the Meijer store brand, which is the house brand of Meijer, Inc., a Midwest US supercenter chain headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This product belongs to the popcorn, peanuts, seeds, and related snacks category and combines two distinct popcorn varieties — a caramel-coated style and a cheese-flavored style — in a single mixed bag.
The dominant ingredients by weight are popcorn, brown sugar, and corn syrup, which form the sweet caramel component. Additional fats include corn oil, canola and/or soybean oil, and notably hydrogenated soybean oil — a partially hydrogenated oil (PHO) that is a source of artificial trans fats. The FDA set a GRAS revocation deadline for PHOs in 2018, so this formulation likely predates or was in transition during that regulatory period; consumers with trans fat concerns should review the current label. Dairy-derived ingredients include whey, reduced lactose whey, and cheddar cheese (from cultured milk, salt, and enzymes). The product also contains soy lecithin and artificial colors Yellow 6 and Yellow 5, as well as silicon dioxide as an anti-caking agent.
Nutritionally, this snack provides 500 calories per 100 grams, placing it in the high calorie-density category typical of coated popcorn products. Macronutrients per 100g are approximately 85.71g carbohydrates, 21.43g fat, and 3.57g protein, with 3.6g of dietary fiber. The high carbohydrate load reflects the brown sugar and corn syrup content. Allergens present include wheat (via maltodextrin processing), soy (soy lecithin), and dairy (whey, cheddar cheese). This product is not suitable for vegans or those avoiding dairy, soy, or artificial dyes.
