Pumpkin Brioche Twist

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 5 ingredients to avoid

Trader Joe's Pumpkin Brioche Twist 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. 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 Pumpkin Brioche Twist lists 30 ingredients, starting with Wheat Flour, Eggs, Pumpkin Puree, Sugar and Brown Sugar. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Trader Joe's Pumpkin Brioche Twist scores worse than most bread we have scored. A higher-scoring option in bread is New Seasons Market New Seasons Organic French Batard Sliced at 97/100.
