Canneles

Breakdown

Processed · 1 ingredient to avoid

Trader Joe's Canneles scores 53/100 on Tallow — our okay 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.

Trader Joe's Canneles lists 7 ingredients, starting with Milk, Powdered Sugar, Eggs, Wheat Flour and Butter. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 53/100 Trader Joe's Canneles lands mid-scale — below the typical score in pastries & muffins, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in pastries & muffins is Pearl Milling Company Organic Pancakes at 100/100.
