Black Forest Organic Gummy Bears scores 50/100 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 1g protein and 15g 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.

Black Forest Organic Gummy Bears lists 16 ingredients, starting with Organic Tapioca Syrup, Organic Cane Sugar, Water, Gelatin and Organic Lemon Juice Concentrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

100 kcal per serving, or 333 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Black Forest Organic Gummy Bears on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 50/100 Black Forest Organic Gummy Bears lands mid-scale — below the typical score in gummies & chewy candy, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in gummies & chewy candy is Blue Stripes Superfruit Gummies Mango Pineapple at 100/100.
