Common questions

Is Buchanan’s Deluxe healthy?

Buchanan’s Deluxe scores 36/100 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.

What is in Buchanan’s Deluxe?

Buchanan’s Deluxe lists 4 ingredients, starting with Water, Malted Barley, Grain Spirit and Caramel Color. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Buchanan’s Deluxe contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Buchanan’s Deluxe’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
