Smucker's Red Raspberry Preserves 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 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.

Smucker's Red Raspberry Preserves lists 5 ingredients, starting with Red Raspberries, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup, Fruit Pectin and Citric Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

50 kcal per serving, or 250 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Smucker's Red Raspberry Preserves on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 5/100 Smucker's Red Raspberry Preserves scores worse than most syrups & spreads we have scored. A higher-scoring option in syrups & spreads is Spring Tree 100% Pure Rich Taste Maple Syrup at 100/100.
