Organic Super! Mac Shells & White Cheddar

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 1 ingredient to avoid

Annie's Organic Super! Mac Shells & White Cheddar scores 67/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 7g fiber, 16g protein and 6g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Annie's Organic Super! Mac Shells & White Cheddar lists 12 ingredients, starting with Organic Wheat Flour, Organic Pea Protein, Dried Cheddar Cheese, Pasteurized Milk and Bacterial Cultures. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

300 kcal per serving, or 353 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Annie's Organic Super! Mac Shells & White Cheddar on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 67/100 Annie's Organic Super! Mac Shells & White Cheddar lands mid-scale — below the typical score in pasta & noodles, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in pasta & noodles is Rao's Homemade Spaghetti at 100/100.
