About HOT JALAPENO PEPPER SLICES, HOT JALAPENO

Meijer Hot Jalapeno Pepper Slices are a pickled pepper condiment sold under the Meijer brand at Meijer, Inc. supercenter stores across the Midwest. The ingredients are jalapeno peppers packed in a brine of water, vinegar, and salt, with dehydrated onion, dehydrated garlic, calcium chloride as a firming agent, sodium benzoate as a preservative, and Yellow 5 synthetic dye for coloring. This version uses sodium benzoate and Yellow 5 rather than the turmeric-based coloring found in alternative jalapeno formulations. Yellow 5 (tartrazine) is an azo dye that under EU regulations requires a consumer warning about potential effects on children's activity and attention; no equivalent U.S. requirement exists. Sodium benzoate can react with ascorbic acid under certain conditions to form trace benzene, though this is not a concern in the absence of added vitamin C.

The product contains no top-9 FDA allergens. It is vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free. Per 100 grams, the slices provide approximately 18 calories, 3.57 grams of carbohydrates, no protein, and no fat. A 28-gram serving contains approximately 5 calories. Dehydrated onion and garlic add background savory depth to the brine. Calcium chloride maintains the firm, crisp texture of the sliced jalapenos through the heat processing and shelf storage period. These pickled slices are used on pizza, sandwiches, burgers, nachos, and in Mexican-style dishes, or as a condiment alongside grilled meats and sausages.
