Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 4 ingredients to avoid

Kodiak Protein-Packed Chocolate Chip Crunchy Granola Bars scores 5/100 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. Per serving it carries 2g fiber, 10g protein and 11g sugar. 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.

Kodiak Protein-Packed Chocolate Chip Crunchy Granola Bars lists 18 ingredients, starting with Whole Grain Rolled Oats, Cane Sugar, Wheat Protein Isolate, Sunflower and/Or Canola and/Or Soybean Oil and Pea Protein. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

210 kcal per serving, or 467 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Kodiak Protein-Packed Chocolate Chip Crunchy Granola Bars on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.
