About COCOA ALMONDS, COCOA
Meijer Cocoa Almonds (sucralose-sweetened formulation) are a flavored nut snack sold under the Meijer private label brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. This falls in the popcorn, peanuts, seeds, and related snacks category. This particular variant uses sucralose as a non-nutritive sweetener instead of sugar, producing a cocoa-coated almond with a lower sugar calorie profile compared to the companion sugar-sweetened version.
Almonds are the primary ingredient, providing the nut base. Maltodextrin serves as the binding and coating carrier for the cocoa powder and flavoring. Cocoa processed with alkali (Dutch-process cocoa) provides the chocolate color and flavor. Minor ingredients (under 2%) include modified potato starch, natural and artificial flavors, salt, sunflower oil, and sucralose. The use of sucralose rather than sugar differentiates this from the standard sugar-coated cocoa almond format. There are no allergens from the Big 9 other than tree nuts (almonds).
Nutritionally, this formulation provides 536 calories per 100 grams with 25g carbohydrates, 21.43g protein, and 46.43g fat. Fiber is 10.7g per 100g, primarily from the almond base. The high fat content is characteristic of almonds, which are naturally rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The serving size is 28 grams. The protein level of 21.43g per 100g makes this a protein-meaningful snack. Sucralose is an FDA-approved non-nutritive sweetener.
