Sesame Seed Bagel

Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Thomas' Sesame Seed Bagel scores 31/100 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.

Thomas' Sesame Seed Bagel lists 20 ingredients, starting with Enriched Wheat Flour, Water, Sugar, Yeast and Salt. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 31/100 Thomas' Sesame Seed Bagel scores worse than most bagels & english muffins we have scored. A higher-scoring option in bagels & english muffins is Dave's Killer Bread Plain Awesome Organic Bagels, Pre-Sliced, 5 ct, 16.75 oz at 87/100.
