Seasoned Crinkle Potato Fries

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

McCain Seasoned Crinkle Potato Fries 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. Per serving it carries 1g fiber, 2g protein and 1g sugar. 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.

McCain Seasoned Crinkle Potato Fries lists 14 ingredients, starting with Potatoes, Wheat Flour, Vegetable Oil, Annatto and Baking Soda. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

110 kcal per serving, or 131 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores McCain Seasoned Crinkle Potato Fries on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 5/100 McCain Seasoned Crinkle Potato Fries scores worse than most frozen foods we have scored. A higher-scoring option in frozen foods is Straus Family Creamery Organic Vanilla Bean Ice Cream at 100/100.
