About CUT YAMS SWEET POTATOES IN SYRUP, SYRUP
Meijer Cut Yams Sweet Potatoes in Syrup is a canned vegetable product sold under the Meijer private-label brand of Meijer, Inc., the Grand Rapids, Michigan-based Midwest supercenter chain. Despite the name referencing yams, this product contains sweet potatoes — a common labeling convention in the United States where orange-fleshed sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas) are frequently marketed as yams, even though true yams (Dioscorea species) are a botanically distinct tropical tuber. The three-ingredient formulation is sweet potatoes, water, and sugar, where the sugar creates a light syrup surrounding the soft-cooked sweet potato pieces.
Per 100 g, this product provides 102 calories, 24.70 g carbohydrates, 1.20 g protein, 0 g fat, and 1.80 g dietary fiber. The carbohydrate content is elevated compared to plain sweet potatoes due to the added sugar syrup, which contributes both calories and sweetness. Sweet potatoes are a source of beta-carotene (vitamin A precursor), vitamin C, potassium, and manganese, though specific micronutrient values are not declared in this USDA entry. Fiber at 1.80 g/100 g is a modest contribution.
No allergens are declared. Suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets. Compatible with gluten-free and dairy-free dietary patterns. The added sugar content makes this product less suitable for low-sugar or diabetic dietary management compared to plain canned or frozen sweet potatoes. Commonly used as a side dish, particularly in traditional American holiday cooking where candied or syrup-packed sweet potatoes are a staple preparation.
Ingredients
SWEET POTATOES, WATER, SUGAR.
