Apple Sauce

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 4 ingredients to avoid

National Fruit Product Co. Inc Apple Sauce 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. Per serving it carries 1g fiber, 0g protein and 16g 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.

National Fruit Product Co. Inc Apple Sauce lists 11 ingredients, starting with Apples, Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Sugar and Strawberry Puree. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

78 kcal per serving, or 69 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores National Fruit Product Co. Inc Apple Sauce on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.
