Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Papa Joe's Lite Tomato Ketchup scores 66/100 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. Per serving it carries 2g protein and 12g 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.

Papa Joe's Lite Tomato Ketchup lists 6 ingredients, starting with Tomatenmark Einfach Konzentriert, Brandweineddig, Zucker, Speisesalz Modifizierte Stärke and Gewürze. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

64 kcal per serving, or 64 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Papa Joe's Lite Tomato Ketchup on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 66/100 Papa Joe's Lite Tomato Ketchup lands mid-scale — below the typical score in ketchup & mustard, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in ketchup & mustard is Smack Kitchen Organic Tomato Ketchup at 100/100.
