Cary's Sugar Free Syrup

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 5 ingredients to avoid

Cary's Sugar Free Syrup scores 30/100 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.

Cary's Sugar Free Syrup lists 6 ingredients, starting with Sorbitol, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Caramel Color, Potassium Sorbate and Sucralose. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 30/100 Cary's Sugar Free Syrup scores worse than most sweeteners we have scored. A higher-scoring option in sweeteners is Florida Crystals Organic Raw Cane Sugar at 100/100.
