Reduced Sugar Barbecue Sauce

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 4 ingredients to avoid

Fountain Reduced Sugar Barbecue Sauce scores 35/100 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.

Fountain Reduced Sugar Barbecue Sauce lists 13 ingredients, starting with Tomatoes, Apple Fruit Purée, Water, Maltitol Syrup and Steviol Glycosides. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 35/100 Fountain Reduced Sugar Barbecue Sauce scores worse than most condiments & sauces we have scored. A higher-scoring option in condiments & sauces is Trader Joe's Organic Tomato Sauce at 100/100.
