Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

null Cream cheese scores 60/100 on Tallow — our okay 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.

null Cream cheese lists 17 ingredients, starting with Cream, Milk, Skim Milk Powder, Salt and Guar Gum. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 60/100 null Cream cheese lands mid-scale — below the typical score in cheese, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in cheese is Daisy Low Fat Cottage Cheese 2% Milkfat at 94/100.
