Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Special K Extra Red Berries Cereal scores 7/100 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 3g fiber, 3g 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.
