Utz Popcorn

Breakdown

6 ingredients to avoid

Utz Popcorn scores 28/100 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.

Utz Popcorn lists 9 ingredients, starting with Popcorn, Corn Oil, Canola Oil, Sunflower Oil and Safflower Oil. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 28/100 Utz Popcorn scores worse than most popcorn we have scored. A higher-scoring option in popcorn is Lesser Evil Himalayan Pink Salt Organic Popcorn at 95/100.
