Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Rating: 1/5 Green Leaves
The Breyers SNICKERS® ice cream product earns a 1/5 green leaves rating on our website, signaling that it is among the least recommended options for those seeking cleaner food alternatives. This rating is based on a comprehensive assessment of its ingredients and manufacturing practices.
The product is not organic, and it does not use non-GMO ingredients. It contains multiple types of added sugars, including sugar and corn syrup, which contribute to its low rating. The presence of potentially harmful additives such as natural and artificial flavors, diglycerides, and soy lecithin further detract from its score. Among the known harmful additives, artificial flavors and carrageenan are of particular concern. Additionally, the product includes oils that are considered harmful, specifically peanut oil and palm oil. High fructose corn syrup, listed as artificial flavor, is another significant ingredient that negatively impacts the overall score.
The Breyers SNICKERS® ice cream contains a variety of ingredients that are not aligned with cleaner eating objectives. Skim milk and cream serve as the dairy base, while sugar and corn syrup are used as sweeteners. The inclusion of Snickers pieces introduces additional sugar, palm oil, and artificial flavors. Chocolatey coated peanuts add to the product’s indulgent profile but also contribute to the list of less desirable ingredients. Despite the use of processed vanilla beans and annatto for color, these more natural components are overshadowed by the presence of the aforementioned additives and sweeteners.
Consumers seeking healthier options are advised to avoid this product due to its composition, which is heavily reliant on added sugars, harmful oils, and additives. The 1/5 green leaves rating reflects the product’s position as a choice that does not support the goal of cleaner, more wholesome food alternatives. Those prioritizing health and ingredient quality may find better alternatives that align more closely with their dietary preferences and values.
