Kroger Protein Smoothie

Breakdown

4 ingredients to avoid

Kroger Protein Smoothie scores 36/100 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.

Kroger Protein Smoothie lists 18 ingredients, starting with Water, Milk Protein Concentrate, Milk Protein Isolate, Cream and Skim Milk. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 36/100 Kroger Protein Smoothie scores worse than most energy drinks we have scored. A higher-scoring option in energy drinks is Clean Simple Eats Energy + Focus Energy Drink, Lava Tropic, 12 fl oz at 39/100.
