Gluten Free Original Mac and Cheese Dinner

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 1 ingredient to avoid

Kraft Gluten Free Original Mac and Cheese Dinner scores 50/100 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. Per serving it carries 4g fiber, 6g protein and 7g 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.

Kraft Gluten Free Original Mac and Cheese Dinner lists 18 ingredients, starting with Pasta, Corn Flour, Brown Rice Flour, Cheese Sauce Mix and Whey. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

253 kcal per serving, or 357 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Kraft Gluten Free Original Mac and Cheese Dinner on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 50/100 Kraft Gluten Free Original Mac and Cheese Dinner lands mid-scale — below the typical score in prepared meals, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in prepared meals is Amy's Organic Medium Chili at 100/100.
