Salmon Rub

Breakdown

Processed · 1 ingredient to watch

Trader Joe's Salmon Rub scores 92/100 on Tallow — our clean 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 Salmon Rub lists 6 ingredients, starting with Smoked Paprika, Black Pepper, Dried Thyme, Kosher Salt and Rice Concentrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 92/100 Trader Joe's Salmon Rub sits in our top band, among the better spices & seasonings we have scored. A higher-scoring option in spices & seasonings is Saltix Baja Mineral Sea Salt Fine Grind at 100/100.
