About GREEN MARASCHINO CHERRIES
Kroger Green Maraschino Cherries are a baking decoration and dessert topping product sold under The Kroger Co.'s Kroger private label. Maraschino cherries are bleached, brined, and re-sweetened cherries used primarily as garnishes for cocktails, ice cream sundaes, cakes, and holiday confections. The green variety is artificially colored to produce its distinctive appearance, distinguishing it from the more common red variety.
The ingredient list includes cherries, water, high-fructose corn syrup, corn syrup, citric acid, natural and artificial flavor, potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate as preservatives, Blue 1, Yellow 5, and sulfur dioxide as a preservative. This formulation contains high-fructose corn syrup as the primary sweetener, as well as corn syrup, resulting in a high added-sugar content. The two artificial colors, Blue 1 and Yellow 5, are certified FD&C synthetic dyes that together produce the green hue. Sulfur dioxide is present as a preservative and must be declared as an allergen in products containing 10 ppm or more, as it can trigger reactions in sulfite-sensitive individuals, particularly those with asthma.
Per 100 grams, this product contains approximately 200 calories, consisting almost entirely of carbohydrates (40 grams), with no fat, protein, or fiber. The very high calorie density and sugar content reflect the product's classification as a confection rather than a whole food. No wheat, soy, dairy, nut, or sesame allergens are listed. This product is intended for use in small quantities as a garnish.
