Essential Everyday Spread, Strawberry

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

Essential Everyday Spread, Strawberry 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.

Essential Everyday Spread, Strawberry lists 8 ingredients, starting with Strawberries, Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Sugar and Citric Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Essential Everyday Spread, Strawberry scores worse than most syrups & spreads we have scored. A higher-scoring option in syrups & spreads is Spring Tree 100% Pure Rich Taste Maple Syrup at 100/100.
