Lightly Salted Cashews

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 7 ingredients to avoid

Southern Grove Lightly Salted Cashews 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 Grove Lightly Salted Cashews lists 18 ingredients, starting with Unbleached Enriched Flour, Palm Oil, Soybean Oil, Whey and Corn 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 Grove Lightly Salted Cashews scores worse than most nuts & seeds we have scored. A higher-scoring option in nuts & seeds is Aldi Dry Roasted Organic Peanuts at 100/100.
