Rating: Not Clean
- 2 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Rated at 2/5 green leaves, the Amy’s Kitchen Asian Dumpling Bowl falls short of the cleaner food options promised by our standards. This product does not meet the expectations for those seeking organic and additive-free meals.
The ingredient list reveals the presence of both organic and non-organic components. The use of non-organic ingredients results in a reduction of the product’s overall green leaf rating. Furthermore, the inclusion of added sugars, specifically cane sugar, detracts from the healthiness of the meal. The presence of cane sugar is particularly concerning as it represents a form of harmful added sugar that negatively impacts the product’s score.
Despite the use of non-GMO ingredients, which is a positive aspect, the Amy’s Kitchen Asian Dumpling Bowl contains other elements that raise concerns. The product’s ingredient list lacks transparency regarding a potentially harmful additive, noted as rum in the scoring breakdown. This additive is not explicitly mentioned in the provided ingredient list, which may indicate a discrepancy in the scoring process or a misunderstanding of the ingredients.
The product does feature a range of organic vegetables, such as broccoli, green beans, and carrots, which contribute to its nutritional value. However, these benefits are overshadowed by the negative aspects mentioned earlier. The use of organic tofu and a variety of organic spices reflects an effort to include cleaner ingredients, yet this is not enough to elevate the overall quality of the meal to our website’s standards.
The Amy’s Kitchen Asian Dumpling Bowl, with its current composition, does not align with our mission to offer cleaner, healthier food alternatives. Although it incorporates certain organic and non-GMO ingredients, the detriments of non-organic components, added sugars, and unclear additives overshadow these positive qualities. The meal has the potential for improvement, primarily through the elimination of added sugars and the commitment to fully organic ingredients, which would enhance its standing within our green leaf rating system.
