Vanilla and Almond Granola

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 6 ingredients to avoid

Special K Vanilla and Almond Granola 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.

Special K Vanilla and Almond Granola lists 21 ingredients, starting with Whole Grain Oats, Brown Rice Syrup, Soy Protein Isolate, Brown Sugar and Soy Protein Concentrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Special K Vanilla and Almond Granola scores worse than most granola & muesli we have scored. A higher-scoring option in granola & muesli is purely elizabeth. Organic Grain-Free Vanilla Almond Butter Granola at 100/100.
