Dutch Griddle Cakes

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Trader Joe's Dutch Griddle Cakes scores 11/100 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.

Trader Joe's Dutch Griddle Cakes lists 14 ingredients, starting with Wheat Flour, Canola Oil, Water, Egg and Sugar. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 11/100 Trader Joe's Dutch Griddle Cakes scores worse than most breakfast foods we have scored. A higher-scoring option in breakfast foods is DUNNES STORES Pancakes at 100/100.
