Common questions

Is Mentos Gum healthy?

Mentos Gum 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. 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 Gum?

Mentos Gum lists 24 ingredients, starting with Xylitol, Sorbitol, Chewing Gum Base, Mannitol and Maltitol Syrup. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Mentos Gum contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Mentos Gum’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 Gum?

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