Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 6 ingredients to avoid

Mirage Margarine scores 11/100 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 0g protein and 0g 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.

Mirage Margarine lists 13 ingredients, starting with Soybean and/Or Canola Oil, Modified Palm and Palm Kernel On, Water, Salt and Whey Powder. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

70 kcal per serving, or 700 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Mirage Margarine on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 11/100 Mirage Margarine scores worse than most dairy & eggs we have scored. A higher-scoring option in dairy & eggs is FAGE Total 0% Nonfat Greek Strained Yogurt at 100/100.
