About FRUIT COCKTAIL IN HEAVY SYRUP
Kroger Fruit Cocktail in Heavy Syrup is a canned fruit product from The Kroger Co.'s Kroger store brand. Fruit cocktail is a standardized canned fruit blend regulated by FDA standards of identity, typically requiring specific percentages of peaches, pears, grapes, pineapple, and cherries.
This formulation lists peaches and pears as primary fruits, followed by water, sugar (the heavy syrup component), grapes, pineapples, and cherry halves. The cherry halves are artificially colored with Red 3 (erythrosine), a synthetic dye used in maraschino-style cherries. The FDA has maintained Red 3's approved status for foods despite a petition filed for its delisting, and as of the USDA data period, it remains approved. Ascorbic acid is added to promote color retention in the fruit. Citric acid contributes mild tartness and may also function as a preservative.
Per 100 grams, this product provides 78 calories, no protein, 19.53 grams of carbohydrates, no fat, and 0.8 grams of fiber. The caloric content is substantially higher than the same fruits packed in water or juice, reflecting the added sugar syrup. No common allergens are present. This product is vegan and gluten-free. It is a classic pantry staple used in fruit salads, gelatin desserts, baked goods, and as a topping. Consumers seeking to minimize added sugar may prefer the same product in juice or water packs.
