blueberry muffin

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 9 ingredients to avoid

blueberry muffin scores 10/100 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.

blueberry muffin lists 24 ingredients, starting with Oats, Tapioca Syrup, Fig Paste, Oat Flour and High Oleic Sunflower Oil. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

417 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores blueberry muffin on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 10/100 blueberry muffin scores worse than most snacks we have scored. A higher-scoring option in snacks is Mary's Gone Crackers Organic SuperSeed Seaweed & Black Sesame Crackers at 100/100.
