About HALF & HALF, MILK & CREAM
Mountain Dairy Fat-Free Half and Half is a non-fat dairy alternative product sold under The Kroger Co.'s Mountain Dairy regional sub-brand. This formulation achieves a cream-like texture without butterfat through a blend of skim milk, non-fat milk solids, corn syrup, titanium dioxide for whitening, sodium citrate, dipotassium phosphate, mono and diglycerides, carrageenan, natural flavor, and vitamin A palmitate as a fat-soluble vitamin supplement.
The inclusion of titanium dioxide as a food colorant is noteworthy: this white inorganic compound is used to replicate the opacity of fat-containing dairy. While it remains FDA-permitted in the United States, the European Food Safety Authority suspended its E171 status in 2021 due to genotoxicity concerns. Corn syrup provides sweetness and mouthfeel to compensate for the absence of butterfat. Carrageenan, a seaweed-derived polysaccharide, acts as a stabilizer and viscosity agent. Dipotassium phosphate and sodium citrate are buffering and emulsifying salts.
Per 100 milliliters, this product delivers 67 calories, 3.33 grams of protein, 10 grams of carbohydrates, and zero fat. The elevated carbohydrate content relative to full-fat half and half is due to added corn syrup. Dairy is the primary allergen; not suitable for lactose-intolerant or vegan consumers. No gluten, soy, nuts, or sesame are listed. This product targets consumers seeking a low-fat coffee creamer with the appearance and partial mouthfeel of traditional half and half.
