Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Gardein Ultimate Plant-Based Beef Crumbles scores 40/100 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.

Gardein Ultimate Plant-Based Beef Crumbles lists 14 ingredients, starting with Water, Textured Pea Protein, Textured Wheat Protein, Palm Oil and Palm Kernel Oil. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 40/100 Gardein Ultimate Plant-Based Beef Crumbles scores worse than most plant-based milks we have scored.
