About FIG BARS, FIG
Great Value Fig Bars are a Walmart store-brand alternative to the classic fig cookie, built around an enriched wheat flour shell and a fig paste filling. The ingredient list flags several items worth noting. High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) appears prominently as a sweetener alongside corn syrup and dextrose, contributing to the product's 70.6 g of carbohydrates per 100 g. Soybean oil is preserved with TBHQ (tert-butylhydroquinone), a synthetic antioxidant that some consumers prefer to avoid. The figs are preserved with sulfur dioxide, which is a sulfite preservative — individuals with sulfite sensitivity or asthma should take note, as sulfites can trigger reactions. Sodium sulfite also appears in the preservatives blend.
Additional preservatives include potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate, and citric acid. Palm oil is also included. The product contains artificial flavors in addition to natural ones, and caramel color for appearance. At 353 calories per 100 g with only 2.9 g protein and 2.9 g fiber, these are a moderate-energy snack. Wheat and soy are the primary allergens. The overall ingredient profile is fairly conventional for a budget snack cookie, with the TBHQ, HFCS, and sulfite preservation being the notable consumer flags.
