Marzetti Fat-free ranch dressing

Breakdown

10 ingredients to avoid

Marzetti Fat-free ranch dressing scores 15/100 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.

Marzetti Fat-free ranch dressing lists 26 ingredients, starting with Water, Distilled Vinegar, Maltodextrin, Modified Corn Starch and Sugar. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Marzetti Fat-free ranch dressing scores worse than most salad dressings we have scored. A higher-scoring option in salad dressings is Primal Kitchen Ranch Avocado Oil Dressing & Marinade 8 fl oz at 86/100.
