Shoprite Popcorn

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 1 ingredient to avoid

Shoprite Popcorn 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.

Shoprite Popcorn lists 9 ingredients, starting with Popcorn, Vegetable Oil, Butter Powder, Salt and Nonfat Dry Milk. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 26/100 Shoprite Popcorn scores worse than most popcorn we have scored. A higher-scoring option in popcorn is Lesser Evil Organic Popcorn Himalayan Pink Salt at 100/100.
