Ariel Original 4in1 Pods

Breakdown

6 ingredients to avoid

Ariel Original 4in1 Pods scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. 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.

Ariel Original 4in1 Pods lists 28 ingredients, starting with Water, Mea-c10-13 Alkyl Benzenesulfonate, Mea Laureth Sulfate, C12-14 Pareth-n and Anionic Surfactants (>= 30%). Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Ariel Original 4in1 Pods scores worse than most laundry we have scored. A higher-scoring option in laundry is Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda at 100/100.
