Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 6 ingredients to avoid

Nature Valley Protein Peanut Almond & Dark Chocolate 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 2g fiber, 11g protein and 8g 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.
