Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Trader Joe's Caramelised Red Onion Chutney 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. Per serving it carries 1g fiber, 2g protein and 1g sugar. 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 Caramelised Red Onion Chutney lists 17 ingredients, starting with Water, Almonds, Sunflower Oil, Lemon Juice and Tamari Soy Sauce. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

90 kcal per serving, or 273 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Trader Joe's Caramelised Red Onion Chutney on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 5/100 Trader Joe's Caramelised Red Onion Chutney scores worse than most condiments & sauces we have scored. A higher-scoring option in condiments & sauces is Simple Truth Organic Thick & Chunky Mild Salsa at 100/100.
