Target Brands Inc. Classic lemonade

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

Target Brands Inc. Classic lemonade scores 15/100 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.

Target Brands Inc. Classic lemonade lists 6 ingredients, starting with Water, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Lemon Juice Concentrate, Natural Flavor and Citric Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Target Brands Inc. Classic lemonade scores worse than most juices we have scored. A higher-scoring option in juices is R.W. Knudsen Organic Beet Apple Ginger Juice Beverage at 100/100.
