King King Golden Syrup

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

King King Golden Syrup 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.

King King Golden Syrup lists 6 ingredients, starting with Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Dehydrated Non-refined Rice Syrup, Water and Potassium Sorbate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 King King Golden Syrup scores worse than most sweeteners we have scored. A higher-scoring option in sweeteners is Rowse Organic Honey at 100/100.
