Hi-Chew Original Fruit Chews

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

Hi-Chew Original Fruit Chews scores 39/100 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.

Hi-Chew Original Fruit Chews lists 17 ingredients, starting with Glucose Syrup, Sugar, Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil, Gelatin and Malic Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 39/100 Hi-Chew Original Fruit Chews scores worse than most candy & confectionery we have scored. A higher-scoring option in candy & confectionery is Hu Organic Salty Dark Chocolate 70% Cacao at 100/100.
