Common questions

Is Hershey's Syrup healthy?

Hershey's Syrup scores 10/100 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.

What is in Hershey's Syrup?

Hershey's Syrup lists 11 ingredients, starting with High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup, Water, Cocoa and Sugar. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Hershey's Syrup contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Hershey's Syrup’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
