Common questions
Is Melinda's Mexicana healthy?
Melinda's Mexicana 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 Melinda's Mexicana?
Melinda's Mexicana lists 10 ingredients, starting with Water, Cayenne Pepper, White Vinegar, Salt and Paprika. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
Does Melinda's Mexicana contain seed oils?
No. Nothing in Melinda's Mexicana’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 Melinda's Mexicana?
