Meijer Lemonade

Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Meijer Lemonade 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.

Meijer Lemonade lists 11 ingredients, starting with Sugar, Fructose, Citric Acid, Strawberry Color (Maltodextrin) and Natural Flavor. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Meijer Lemonade scores worse than most juices we have scored. A higher-scoring option in juices is R.W. Knudsen Organic Beet Apple Ginger Juice Beverage at 100/100.
