Common questions

Is Skittles Fruits Candy healthy?

Skittles Fruits Candy 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. 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.

Skittles Fruits Candy lists 18 ingredients, starting with Sugar, Corn Syrup, Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil, Citric Acid and Tapioca Dextrin. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
