Cheese Straw

Breakdown

1 ingredient to avoid

Cheese Straw scores 89/100 on Tallow — our clean 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.

Cheese Straw lists 5 ingredients, starting with Cheddar Cheese, Unbleached Wheat Flour, Palm Oil, Cayenne and Sea Salt. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 89/100 Cheese Straw sits in our top band, among the better crackers we have scored. A higher-scoring option in crackers is Annie's Organic Cheddar Squares Original at 100/100.
