Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Food Club Macaroni & Cheese Dinner Original scores 20/100 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. Per serving it carries 1g fiber, 8g protein and 9g sugar. 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.

Food Club Macaroni & Cheese Dinner Original lists 24 ingredients, starting with Enriched Macaroni Product, Wheat Flour, Malted Barley Flour, Niacin and Reduced Iron. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

250 kcal per serving, or 357 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Food Club Macaroni & Cheese Dinner Original on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.
