About FRUIT COCKTAIL IN LIGHT SYRUP, LIGHT SYRUP
Meijer Fruit Cocktail in Light Syrup is a canned fruit product produced under the Meijer private label by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The light syrup format represents a lower-sugar alternative to the brand's heavy syrup fruit cocktail, aimed at consumers seeking a somewhat lighter canned fruit option.
The product contains diced peaches, diced pears, water, grapes, corn syrup, pineapple segments, halved cherries colored red with carmine, and sugar. Carmine, derived from the cochineal insect, is an animal-based red colorant required by name on US food labels since 2011. It is non-vegan and non-vegetarian, and is a known allergen for some individuals. Compared to the heavy syrup version, the carbohydrate content is notably lower at 15.08 g per 100 g versus 19.53 g, reflecting reduced syrup concentration. No artificial flavors or synthetic preservatives are listed.
Nutritionally per 100 grams: 63 calories, 15.08 g carbohydrates, 0.79 g protein, 0 g fat, and 1.6 g dietary fiber. The higher fiber (1.6 g vs. 0.8 g in the heavy syrup version) may reflect the serving size or slight fruit composition differences between the two formulations. The light syrup format is a better fit for calorie-conscious consumers who still want a sweetened canned fruit product. No top-9 allergens are declared beyond the carmine colorant disclosure.
