Nut bar

Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Wellsley Farms Nut bar scores 26/100 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.

Wellsley Farms Nut bar lists 16 ingredients, starting with Almonds, Polydextrose, Cocoa Butter, Chicory Root Fiber and Erythritol. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 26/100 Wellsley Farms Nut bar scores worse than most protein & snack bars we have scored. A higher-scoring option in protein & snack bars is That’s It Apple + Strawberries Fruit Bar at 100/100.
