About FIG GOAT CHEESE, FIG
Meijer Fig Goat Cheese is a flavored soft fresh goat cheese sold under the Meijer private label, combining tangy chèvre with a sweet fig spread for a balanced sweet-savory profile popular in specialty cheese and entertaining segments.
Ingredients are: pasteurized goat's milk, fig spread (figs, cane sugar, citric acid, pectin, lactic acid, ascorbic acid), sea salt, bacterial culture, and microbial enzyme. The cheese base is produced from fresh pasteurized goat's milk cultured with bacterial cultures and coagulated using a microbial (non-animal) enzyme — making this potentially suitable for vegetarians who accept microbial rennet. The fig spread is swirled through the cheese log or formed as a layer, with natural fig pieces, cane sugar, citric acid (for pH), pectin (thickener from fruit), and ascorbic acid (antioxidant/preservative).
Goat's milk cheese (chèvre) has a characteristic tangy, earthy flavor and soft, spreadable texture. Compared to cow's milk cheese, goat cheese tends to have smaller fat globules, which some individuals with cow's milk sensitivity can tolerate — though it still contains casein and is not safe for cow's milk protein allergies due to cross-reactivity.
Per 100g: 286 calories, 14.3g protein, 21.4g carbohydrates, 17.9g fat, 0g fiber. The higher carbohydrate content compared to plain feta or goat cheese reflects the added fig spread sugars. The 28g serving contains approximately 80 calories. Contains dairy (goat's milk). No gluten, soy, eggs, or tree nuts. Excellent on crackers, crostini, cheese boards, or with walnuts and honey.
