Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Old Trapper Hot & Spicy Beef Jerky scores 54/100 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.

Old Trapper Hot & Spicy Beef Jerky lists 9 ingredients, starting with Beef, Brown Sugar, Water, Salt and Flavorings. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 54/100 Old Trapper Hot & Spicy Beef Jerky lands mid-scale — below the typical score in jerky & meat snacks, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in jerky & meat snacks is Brooklyn Biltong Naked Classic Tender Steak Slices at 95/100.
