Marca Jalapeno sauce

Breakdown

2 ingredients to avoid

Marca Jalapeno sauce scores 63/100 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. 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.

Marca Jalapeno sauce lists 18 ingredients, starting with Canola Oil, Water, Jalapeño Peppers, Onion and Green Bell Peppers. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 63/100 Marca Jalapeno sauce lands mid-scale — below the typical score in hot sauce, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in hot sauce is Santa Maria Sweet Chili Sauce Less Sugar at 66/100.
