About FUDGE STRIPED SHORTBREAD COOKIES, FUDGE STRIPED
Meijer Fudge Striped Shortbread Cookies are a store-brand cookie sold under the Meijer private label at Meijer, Inc. supercenter stores. This older USDA-registered formulation is notable for containing partially hydrogenated palm kernel oil, which is a source of artificial trans fat. The FDA revoked the GRAS status of partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs) in 2015, with a compliance date of June 2018 for most uses. The presence of this ingredient in this formulation suggests it predates the trans fat GRAS removal deadline and represents a legacy formulation.
Enriched wheat flour is the primary ingredient. Sugar is the sweetener. The shortening blend explicitly declares partially hydrogenated palm kernel oil alongside palm, soybean, and/or cottonseed oils. At less than 2%, alkalized cocoa, HFCS, corn starch, salt, multi-component leavening (sodium bicarbonate, ammonium bicarbonate, sodium acid pyrophosphate, monocalcium phosphate), natural and artificial flavor, soy lecithin, and several artificial colors (Red 40 Lake, Yellow 5 Lake, Blue 1 Lake, Blue 2 Lake, Yellow 5) are present. Ammonium bicarbonate is a traditional leavening agent that gives a distinctive crispness to shortbread-style cookies. Allergens: wheat and soy.
Nutritionally per 100 grams: 486 calories, 71.43 g carbohydrates, 5.71 g protein, 20 g fat, and 0 g fiber. The partially hydrogenated fat declaration is a significant formulation flag for contemporary consumers and distinguishes this as a pre-2018 legacy product entry in the USDA database.
