Cookies & Creme

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 10 ingredients to avoid

m&m's Cookies & Creme 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.

m&m's Cookies & Creme lists 16 ingredients, starting with White Chocolate, Semi-sweet Chocolate, Sugar, Corn Starch and Corn Syrup. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 m&m's Cookies & Creme scores worse than most chocolate we have scored. A higher-scoring option in chocolate is Hu Organic Hazelnut Butter + Hazelnut Crunch Milk Chocolate at 100/100.
