Cheese & Tomato Pasta

Breakdown

Processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Tesco Cheese & Tomato Pasta scores 10/100 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.

Tesco Cheese & Tomato Pasta lists 18 ingredients, starting with Cooked Penne Pasta (Durum Wheat Semolina), Tomato, Onion, Tomato Purée 26% and Water. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 10/100 Tesco Cheese & Tomato Pasta scores worse than most pasta & noodles we have scored. A higher-scoring option in pasta & noodles is Rao's Homemade Spaghetti at 100/100.
