Daiya Chipotle Cheddar Shreds

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

Daiya Chipotle Cheddar Shreds scores 44/100 on Tallow — our okay 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.

Daiya Chipotle Cheddar Shreds lists 21 ingredients, starting with Water, Gluten-free Oat Flour, Pea Protein, Cultures and Enzymes. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 44/100 Daiya Chipotle Cheddar Shreds lands mid-scale — below the typical score in plant-based milks, but clear of the bottom band.
