Caramelized Onion Macaroni & Cheese

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 5 ingredients to avoid

Guinness Caramelized Onion Macaroni & Cheese scores 27/100 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.

Guinness Caramelized Onion Macaroni & Cheese lists 17 ingredients, starting with Organic Pasta, Water, Organic Whey, Organic Canola Oil and Organic Maltodextrin. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 27/100 Guinness Caramelized Onion Macaroni & Cheese scores worse than most frozen foods we have scored. A higher-scoring option in frozen foods is Straus Family Creamery Organic Vanilla Bean Ice Cream at 100/100.
