About LIGHT RED KIDNEY BEANS, LIGHT RED KIDNEY
Kroger Light Red Kidney Beans are a canned bean product from The Kroger Co.'s Kroger brand, offering the convenience of pre-cooked kidney beans ready to use after draining and rinsing. The formulation includes prepared light red kidney beans, water, corn syrup, salt, calcium chloride for firmness, and disodium EDTA for color retention. The corn syrup addition contributes a mild sweetness to the packing liquid. Disodium EDTA chelates metals in the water and bean liquid to preserve the beans' characteristic burgundy color over the shelf life of the product.
At 85 calories per 100 grams with 5.4 grams of protein, 15.4 grams of carbohydrates, zero fat, and 5.4 grams of fiber, canned kidney beans are nutritionally comparable to home-cooked dried beans, though the sodium from salt and the minor corn syrup sweetness are components not present in plain home-cooked beans. No allergens are listed beyond what may occur from facility cross-contact.
Canned kidney beans eliminate soaking, long cooking times, and the phytohaemagglutinin safety concern of undercooked dry kidney beans, making them the most practical format for quick weeknight cooking. They are used directly in chili, soups, rice dishes, salads, and bean burgers. Rinsing under cold water before use removes some of the sodium and the corn syrup-flavored packing liquid. Available at Kroger, Fred Meyer, Harris Teeter, and King Soopers stores.
