Whole Foods Market Original hummus

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 1 ingredient to avoid

Whole Foods Market Original hummus scores 37/100 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.

Whole Foods Market Original hummus lists 11 ingredients, starting with Cooked Chickpeas, Water, Expeller Pressed Canola Oil, Tahini and Garlic. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 37/100 Whole Foods Market Original hummus scores worse than most prepared meals we have scored. A higher-scoring option in prepared meals is Amylu Organic Chicken Meatballs at 97/100.
