Vlasic Pickle Balls scores 36/100 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.

Vlasic Pickle Balls lists 4 ingredients, starting with Degermed Yellow Corn Meal, Vegetable Oil, Yellow 5 and Green 3 (Cl 42053). Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 36/100 Vlasic Pickle Balls scores worse than most pantry & staples we have scored. A higher-scoring option in pantry & staples is Trader Joe's Organic Garbanzo Beans at 100/100.
