Popcorn Oil

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Orville Redenbacher's Popcorn Oil 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 0g fiber, 0g protein and 0g 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.

Orville Redenbacher's Popcorn Oil lists 4 ingredients, starting with Soybean Oil, Artificial Flavor, Color Added and beta Carotene. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

120 kcal per serving, or 800 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Orville Redenbacher's Popcorn Oil on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 5/100 Orville Redenbacher's Popcorn Oil scores worse than most oils & vinegars we have scored. A higher-scoring option in oils & vinegars is Terra Delyssa Organic First Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil at 100/100.
