Southern fried chicken popcorn

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 4 ingredients to avoid

Southern fried chicken popcorn 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.

Southern fried chicken popcorn lists 23 ingredients, starting with Chicken Breast Fillet, Wheat Flour, Water, Fully Refined Soybean Oil and Tapioca Starch. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Southern fried chicken popcorn scores worse than most chips & crisps we have scored. A higher-scoring option in chips & crisps is Late July Thin & Crispy Organic Blue Corn Tortilla Chips at 95/100.
