About CHOCOLATE SYRUP, CHOCOLATE
Meijer Chocolate Syrup (sodium benzoate formulation) is a chocolate-flavored pourable syrup sold under the Meijer private-label brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. This USDA entry represents a formulation variant from other Meijer chocolate syrup entries, distinguished by a different preservative system and slightly different sweetener ordering, suggesting a reformulation or parallel product line within the same brand.
The ingredient composition leads with high fructose corn syrup, followed by sugar, water, and corn syrup. Cocoa provides chocolate flavor. An emulsifier blend of mono- and diglycerides and polysorbate 60 functions similarly to the other formulations. Artificial flavor is listed rather than the named vanillin of the related entries. Two preservatives are used together: sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate, representing a dual-preservative system. Salt and xanthan gum as a thickener round out the formulation. Phosphoric acid is included as an acidulant for pH adjustment.
Nutritionally, this formulation provides 237 calories per 100 grams, lower than the 263 calories per 100 grams in the other Meijer chocolate syrup entries, likely due to a greater proportion of water relative to dissolved solids. Carbohydrates are 60.5 grams per 100 grams, fat zero, and protein 2.6 grams per 100 grams. Fiber is 2.6 grams per 100 grams. The serving size is 38 grams.
This formulation contains sodium benzoate, which when combined with ascorbic acid can form benzene — though this product does not list vitamin C among its ingredients, consumers sensitive to this preservative should note its presence. No dairy, wheat, eggs, or nut allergens are listed. Soy may be present via emulsifiers. The product is likely vegan.
