About CHOCOLATE LIGHT CHURNED STYLE PREMIUM ICE CREAM, CHOCOLATE
Purple Cow Chocolate Light Churned Style Premium Ice Cream is a reduced-fat ice cream product sold under Meijer's Purple Cow sub-brand. The light churned style process incorporates additional air into the frozen mixture, resulting in a lighter texture with fewer calories and less fat than standard full-fat ice cream. Per 100 grams, this product contains approximately 160 calories, 28.4 grams of carbohydrates, 4.3 grams of fat, and 3.7 grams of protein. Fiber is listed at 1.2 grams per 100 grams.
The formulation begins with milk, buttermilk, sugar, and whey as the primary dairy and sweetener components. Corn syrup and cream are present in lesser amounts. Skim milk contributes additional dairy protein. Alkalized cocoa provides the chocolate flavor. At less than 2% each, the product contains cocoa extract, mono- and diglycerides, carob bean gum, tara gum, guar gum, carrageenan, and vitamin A palmitate. The combination of multiple hydrocolloid stabilizers (carob bean, tara, guar gum, and carrageenan) supports the texture achieved through the light churning process.
This product contains milk as an allergen. No artificial colors, artificial flavors, HFCS, or partially hydrogenated oils are present. The fat content of 4.3 grams per 100 grams is significantly lower than the full-fat Meijer and Purple Cow chocolate ice cream variants, which contain approximately 10 to 11 grams per 100 grams. Vitamin A palmitate is added as a nutrient fortification, which is standard practice in reduced-fat dairy products where fat-soluble vitamin levels are lower due to reduced cream content.
