Original Macaroni & Cheese

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

KD Original Original Macaroni & Cheese scores 55/100 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.

KD Original Original Macaroni & Cheese lists 14 ingredients, starting with Pasta, Wheat, Cheese Sauce, Whey Powder and Cheddar Cheese. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 55/100 KD Original Original Macaroni & Cheese lands mid-scale — below the typical score in prepared meals, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in prepared meals is Amylu Organic Chicken Meatballs at 97/100.
