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.

Kellogg's Rice Krispies Cereal lists 28 ingredients, starting with Rice, Sugars, Sugar, Corn and Barley Malt Extract and Salt. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
