Common questions

Is Mentos healthy?

Mentos scores 48/100 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.

What is in Mentos?

Mentos lists 10 ingredients, starting with Sugar, Glucose Syrup (Sourced From Wheat), Hydrogenated Coconut Oil, Rice Starch and Gum Arabic. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Mentos contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Mentos’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 Mentos?

Mentos is NOVA group 4: ultra-processed. That is the top of the scale and the classification the score penalises most heavily.

How does Mentos compare to other gum & mints?

At 48/100 Mentos lands mid-scale — below the typical score in gum & mints, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in gum & mints is Neuro Energy & Focus Extra Strength Gum at 86/100.
