About FAT FREE HALF & HALF
Meijer Fat Free Half and Half is a dairy-based cream substitute sold under the Meijer private label, designed to replicate the creamy mouthfeel of traditional half-and-half (a blend of equal parts whole milk and cream) without the fat. It is commonly used in coffee, tea, and cooking applications.
The base ingredients are skim milk and milk. To compensate for the removed fat and replicate the creamy texture, this formulation incorporates corn syrup solids as a sweetener and mouthfeel agent, along with sodium citrate and dipotassium phosphate as emulsification salts. Mono and diglycerides are added emulsifiers. Carrageenan, a seaweed-derived polysaccharide, provides viscosity and suspension. Vitamins A palmitate and D3 are added to replace fat-soluble vitamins lost during fat removal. Natural flavor contributes a dairy-like taste note. Silicon dioxide (silica) is listed as an anti-caking agent within the natural flavor component.
This product contains dairy (skim milk, milk) and is not suitable for dairy-allergic individuals or vegans. The presence of carrageenan has been a subject of consumer concern; the FDA considers food-grade carrageenan safe, though some health advocacy organizations have raised questions about degraded forms. No artificial colors are present in this formulation.
Per 100ml: 67 calories, 3.3g protein, 10g carbohydrates, 0g fat, 0g fiber. The carbohydrate content is higher than full-fat half-and-half due to the addition of corn syrup solids as a fat replacer. Suitable for those managing fat intake but not calorie-free. Serving size is 30ml.
