Kool-Aid Unsweetened Drink Mix Strawberry

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Kool-Aid Unsweetened Drink Mix Strawberry 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. 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.

Kool-Aid Unsweetened Drink Mix Strawberry lists 7 ingredients, starting with Citric Acid, Salt, Red 40, Calcium Phosphate and Ascorbic Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Kool-Aid Unsweetened Drink Mix Strawberry scores worse than most water we have scored. A higher-scoring option in water is Great Value Purified Drinking Water at 100/100.
