About GRANULATED CANE SUGAR
Meijer Granulated Cane Sugar is a pure crystalline sugar sold under the Meijer private label, made from sugarcane and refined to a standard granulated texture. Granulated cane sugar is the most widely used sweetener in American home cooking, baking, and beverage preparation, and this Meijer private-label version provides the same product at a store-brand value price.
The sole ingredient is sugar, specifically designated as cane sugar rather than the generic sugar descriptor used in many comparable products. Cane sugar is sucrose derived from Saccharum officinarum (sugarcane) as opposed to beet sugar, which is also sucrose but derived from Beta vulgaris. Both are chemically identical at the molecular level; the cane designation is sometimes preferred by consumers for process or preference reasons. No additives, anti-caking agents, or processing aids are listed. The product is free from all food allergens.
Nutritionally, an 8-gram serving (approximately 2 teaspoons) provides 30 calories and 8 grams of carbohydrates, all from sucrose. Per 100 grams, values are 375 calories and 100 grams of carbohydrates. Sugar provides no protein, fat, fiber, vitamins, or minerals.
Granulated cane sugar is foundational to baking, cooking, and beverage preparation. It functions as a sweetener, texture builder in baked goods, preservative in jams and jellies, browning agent via caramelization and Maillard reaction, and fermentation substrate in yeast-based baking and brewing. This Meijer private-label version offers full functional equivalence to national sugar brands at a lower per-pound cost, making it one of the more economical pantry staples in the store.
