Common questions

Is Starburst Goodies healthy?

Starburst Goodies scores 37/100 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.

What is in Starburst Goodies?

Starburst Goodies lists 18 ingredients, starting with Soluble Corn Fiber, Allulose, Sugar, Apple and Cherry. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

No. Nothing in Starburst Goodies’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
