About DICED ORANGE PEEL SWEETENED REAL FRUIT, DICED ORANGE
Kroger Diced Orange Peel Sweetened Real Fruit is a candied dried citrus product sold under The Kroger Co.'s standard Kroger brand, classified within the baking additives and extracts category. Sweetened diced orange peel is a traditional baking ingredient used in fruitcakes, holiday breads, biscotti, cookies, and confections. It consists of orange peel that has been cooked in sweetener syrup to candy it and then dried.
Orange peel is the primary ingredient, providing the fruit substance and natural citrus oils. Corn syrup and HFCS are both used as sweetening agents in the candying process — the dual-sweetener system is typical of commercial candied fruit. Citric acid enhances tartness and contributes to shelf stability. Three preservatives are declared: sodium benzoate, sorbic acid, and sulfur dioxide. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a chemical preservative used extensively in dried fruits and candied citrus to prevent oxidation, browning, and microbial growth. Sulfite preservatives (including sulfur dioxide and sulfite salts) are major allergens requiring declaration under FDA regulations for individuals with sulfite sensitivity, particularly those with asthma.
Nutritionally, per 100 grams this product provides 300 calories, zero protein, 73.33 grams of carbohydrates, zero fat, and 6.7 grams of dietary fiber. Calorie density is high due to the concentrated sugar from the candying process. The dietary fiber at 6.7 grams per 100 grams reflects the natural fiber of orange peel concentrated through drying. Contains HFCS and three preservatives including sulfur dioxide, which is a sulfite allergen requiring labeling. Contains no other major FASTER Act 2023 allergens.
