About LITE FRUIT COCKTAIL
Kroger Lite Fruit Cocktail is a canned mixed fruit product packed in a light juice base rather than heavy syrup. The blend includes peaches, pears, pineapple, grapes, and maraschino-style cherries, packed in a mix of peach juice, pear juice concentrate, and water. At 48 calories per 124 gram serving with 14.52 grams of carbohydrates and 1.6 grams of fiber, this is a relatively light option in the canned fruit category.
An important labeling note: the cherries in this product are described as "artificially colored red with carmine." Carmine (also known as cochineal extract or Natural Red 4) is a red pigment derived from crushed cochineal insects. This makes the product non-vegan and not suitable for those with carmine sensitivity or those following strictly plant-based diets. The FDA requires carmine to be declared by name on ingredient labels.
The formulation also contains natural flavors and pear juice concentrate as sweeteners. There are no artificial preservatives, added sugars beyond what is naturally present in the fruit and juice, no HFCS, and no dairy, wheat, or soy ingredients. Kroger brand fruit cocktail follows the standard USDA Grade A fruit cocktail composition. This product is appropriate for snacking, dessert toppings, and baking applications where canned mixed fruit is called for, but vegans and those avoiding insect-derived colorings should choose an alternative.
