About CUT EXTRA GREEN BEANS
Kroger Cut Extra Green Beans is a canned vegetable product sold under The Kroger Co.'s standard Kroger brand. The 'extra' designation typically refers to the grade or cut fineness of the green beans relative to standard canned green beans. This product contains thermally processed green beans packed in a water-and-salt brine with an added color stabilizer. Canned green beans are a pantry staple widely used as a side dish and in casseroles and other prepared dishes.
The ingredient list includes green beans, water, salt, and zinc chloride, which is declared specifically for color stabilization. Zinc chloride is an approved food additive used in canned vegetable processing to help green beans retain their green color through the thermal sterilization process, which can otherwise cause chlorophyll degradation resulting in an olive or brownish hue. This is a functional additive with a specific declared purpose rather than a cosmetic one.
Nutritionally, this product provides 17 calories per 100 grams, with 0.83 grams of protein, 3.33 grams of carbohydrates, zero fat, and 1.7 grams of dietary fiber. The calorie density is very low. Zinc chloride as an added mineral may contribute marginally to the zinc content of the finished product. Allergens: none from the FASTER Act 2023 major allergen list. The product is gluten-free, fat-free, and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Individuals preferring additive-free canned vegetables may note the inclusion of zinc chloride, though it is an approved and declared ingredient under FDA food additive regulations.
