About MILK CHOCOLATE & CONFECTIONARY COATED DRIED STRAWBERRIES, MILK CHOCOLATE
Meijer's Milk Chocolate and Confectionery Coated Dried Strawberries is a candy-style snack that layers two coatings over sugar-treated dried strawberries. The outermost layer is a white confectionery coating made from sugar, palm kernel oil, nonfat milk powder, whole milk powder, whey powder, palm oil, soy lecithin, and vanilla — a dairy-containing, non-chocolate compound coating. Beneath it sits a milk chocolate layer (sugar, cocoa butter, milk, cocoa mass, soy lecithin, vanilla). The dried strawberry center contains strawberries, sugar, citric acid, artificial strawberry flavor, black carrot juice for color, and sodium metabisulfite as a preservative.
Sodium metabisulfite is a sulfite compound; individuals with sulfite sensitivity or asthma should exercise caution, as sulfites above 10 ppm are required to be declared under FASTER Act labeling standards. The product also contains soy (lecithin) and dairy (milk powder, whey) as allergens. Red 40 is used as a color additive in the nonpareils finish. The confectioner's glaze (shellac) coating is derived from lac insects and is not vegan.
At 500 calories per 100 grams with 70 grams of carbohydrates and 23 grams of fat, this is a high-calorie, high-sugar confection. The palm kernel and palm oils in the white coating are high in saturated fat. Best treated as an occasional treat, this product is sold through Meijer's snack and candy section, appealing to shoppers who enjoy fruit-chocolate combinations.
