Trail Mix Dark Chocolate Cherry

Breakdown

6 ingredients to avoid

Nature Valley Trail Mix Dark Chocolate Cherry scores 10/100 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, 2g 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.

Nature Valley Trail Mix Dark Chocolate Cherry lists 24 ingredients, starting with Sugars, Corn Syrup, Sugar, Fructose and Barley Malt Extract. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

150 kcal per serving, or 429 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Nature Valley Trail Mix Dark Chocolate Cherry on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 10/100 Nature Valley Trail Mix Dark Chocolate Cherry scores worse than most protein & snack bars we have scored. A higher-scoring option in protein & snack bars is That’s It Apple + Strawberries Fruit Bar at 100/100.
