Boing! Apple Juice carton

Breakdown

6 ingredients to avoid

Boing! Apple Juice carton 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.

Boing! Apple Juice carton lists 13 ingredients, starting with Water, Added Sugars, Sugar Apple Juice, Citric Acid and Yellow 5. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Boing! Apple Juice carton scores worse than most juices we have scored. A higher-scoring option in juices is R.W. Knudsen Organic Beet Apple Ginger Juice Beverage at 100/100.
