Hashbrowns Shredded Potatoes

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Trader Joe's Hashbrowns Shredded Potatoes scores 27/100 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 Hashbrowns Shredded Potatoes lists 5 ingredients, starting with Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Soybean and/Or Canola Oil), Salt, Dextrose and Citric Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 27/100 Trader Joe's Hashbrowns Shredded Potatoes scores worse than most frozen fruits & vegetables we have scored. A higher-scoring option in frozen fruits & vegetables is Wyman's Frozen Wild Blueberries at 100/100.
