Great Value Vanilla Flavored Syrup

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Great Value Vanilla Flavored Syrup scores 53/100 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.

Great Value Vanilla Flavored Syrup lists 6 ingredients, starting with Cane Sugar, Water, Natural Flavors, Sodium Benzoate and Potassium Sorbate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 53/100 Great Value Vanilla Flavored Syrup lands mid-scale — below the typical score in sweeteners, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in sweeteners is Florida Crystals Organic Raw Cane Sugar at 100/100.
