President's Choice Margherita pizza

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

President's Choice Margherita pizza scores 26/100 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. 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.

President's Choice Margherita pizza lists 16 ingredients, starting with Tomato Puree, Mozzarella Cheese, Parmesan Cheese, Tomatoes and Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 26/100 President's Choice Margherita pizza scores worse than most frozen pizza we have scored. A higher-scoring option in frozen pizza is Cadia Organic Four Cheese Wood-Fired Italian Pizza at 97/100.
