About MEIJER PUMPERNICKEL
Meijer Pumpernickel Bread is a dark, dense loaf from the Meijer store brand, offering the characteristic deep color and slightly hearty flavor associated with traditional pumpernickel. The bread combines enriched wheat flour and rye flour as its base grains, with caramel color contributing to the deep brown appearance — a common approach in American-style pumpernickel, which differs from the slow-baked German original. Caraway seeds are included, adding the classic slightly anise-like flavor note expected from this bread style.
At 289 calories per 100 grams with 55.26 g carbohydrates, 10.53 g protein, 2.63 g fat, and 5.3 g fiber, this bread has a notably higher fiber content than white bread, partly due to the rye flour content. Rye is a source of resistant starch and has a lower glycemic response than refined wheat. The preservatives used include monoglycerides with propionic acid and phosphoric acid as well as calcium propionate — standard commercial bread shelf-life extenders. Contains wheat (major allergen) and soy (soy oil). No HFCS is present.
This pumpernickel is well-suited for deli-style sandwiches, open-faced smoked fish or cream cheese preparations, and as an accompaniment to soups and stews. It provides a more nutritious, higher-fiber alternative to standard white bread while staying at Meijer's everyday private-label price point.
