Common questions
Is Mackerel healthy?
Mackerel scores 97/100 on Tallow — our clean 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.
What is in Mackerel?
Mackerel lists 1 ingredient, starting with Fish. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
Does Mackerel contain seed oils?
No. Nothing in Mackerel’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
How processed is Mackerel?
We don’t have a NOVA classification on file for Mackerel yet, so the processing axis scores it neutrally.
How does Mackerel compare to other seafood?
At 97/100 Mackerel sits in our top band, among the better seafood we have scored.
Is Mackerel organic?
Mackerel is not certified organic in our data.
Has Mackerel been lab tested?
Not yet. No independent lab has published results for Mackerel, so its score is based on its ingredient list, processing and packaging alone.
