Common questions

Is Trader Joe's Sour Cream healthy?

Trader Joe's Sour Cream scores 100/100 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.

What is in Trader Joe's Sour Cream?

Trader Joe's Sour Cream lists 4 ingredients, starting with Cream, Cultured Pasteurized Grade a Milk, Non Fat Milk and Microbial Enzyme. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

No. Nothing in Trader Joe's Sour Cream’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
