Hot Sesame Oil

Breakdown

2 ingredients to avoid

Hot Sesame Oil scores 15/100 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.

Hot Sesame Oil lists 3 ingredients, starting with Sesame Oil, Chili Pepper Powder and Soybean Oil. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Hot Sesame Oil scores worse than most oils & vinegars we have scored. A higher-scoring option in oils & vinegars is Terra Delyssa Organic First Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil at 100/100.
