About KROGER, PEAR HALVES IN HEAVY SYRUP
Kroger Pear Halves in Heavy Syrup are canned pear halves packed in a sweet syrup from the Kroger store brand. The fruit itself is pears, but the syrup is a combination of water, high-fructose corn syrup, corn syrup, and sugar — a three-sweetener blend that creates the "heavy syrup" designation. Heavy syrup indicates a significantly higher sugar concentration compared to juice-packed or light-syrup alternatives, resulting in a notably sweeter end product with more added calories from the syrup fraction.
Allergen note: no wheat, dairy, soy, nuts, eggs, or sesame are present. The product is vegan and gluten-free. Consumers monitoring sugar intake should be aware that the heavy syrup contributes substantially to the carbohydrate and calorie content beyond what the pears themselves would provide.
Nutritionally, these pear halves deliver approximately 77 calories per 100 g, with 19.2 g carbohydrates largely from the syrup sugars, no protein, no fat, and 1.5 g fiber from the pear flesh. Draining and rinsing the syrup before eating can significantly reduce the sugar load. Canned pear halves in heavy syrup are commonly used in baking, paired with cottage cheese, served as a dessert component, or used in retro gelatin salads and upside-down cakes where the syrup's sweetness is desirable as part of the recipe.
