About CUT CANDIED YAMS
Kroger Cut Candied Yams is a canned sweet potato product packed in a flavored syrup, sold under The Kroger Co.'s standard Kroger brand. Despite the common retail label 'yams,' this product — like virtually all canned products sold under this name in the United States — contains sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas), not true yams (Dioscorea species), which are a distinct botanical family rarely available in U.S. commercial retail. This naming convention is entrenched in American grocery culture and is reflected in the USDA product database entry.
The ingredients are sweet potatoes, water, cane sugar, salt, natural flavor, and spices. Unlike some competing canned candied yam products that use corn syrup or high-fructose corn syrup as a sweetener, this Kroger formulation specifies cane sugar, which may be preferred by consumers avoiding corn-derived sweeteners. Natural flavor and spices contribute to the warm, holiday-style flavor profile associated with candied yam dishes.
Per 100 grams, this product provides 107 calories, zero protein, 27.86 grams of carbohydrates, zero fat, and 2.9 grams of dietary fiber. The calorie density is moderate, and the carbohydrate content is predominantly from sugars in the syrup plus the natural sugars in the sweet potato. The fiber content of 2.9 grams per 100 grams is notable for a canned product. There are no major allergens present. The product is gluten-free, fat-free, and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Individuals monitoring added sugar intake should note that cane sugar is the third-listed ingredient in the packing syrup.
