Tesco roasted peanuts and cashews

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Tesco roasted peanuts and cashews 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.

Tesco roasted peanuts and cashews lists 9 ingredients, starting with Cashew Nuts (Noix de Cajou), Sunflower Oil, Honey (Dried Honey 1.5%), Sugar and Glucose Syrup. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Tesco roasted peanuts and cashews scores worse than most nuts & seeds we have scored. A higher-scoring option in nuts & seeds is Aldi Dry Roasted Organic Peanuts at 100/100.
