Breakdown

1 ingredient to avoid

Trader Joe's Organic apple sauce scores 90/100 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 Organic apple sauce lists 2 ingredients, starting with Organic Apples and Organic Natural Flavor. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 90/100 Trader Joe's Organic apple sauce sits in our top band, among the better baby food & purees we have scored. A higher-scoring option in baby food & purees is Beech-Nut Non-GMO Naturals Carrots Baby Food at 100/100.
