Rating:     Not Clean

Ingredient Score:

Rated at 2 out of 5 green leaves, the Sweet Earth Foods The Curry Tiger Burrito does not meet the criteria for a clean food option on our website. This product is not organic and includes a range of ingredients that detract from its overall healthfulness. Among these are added sugars such as cane sugar and brown rice syrup, which not only reduce the product’s score but also its nutritional value. The presence of citric acid, often used as a preservative, further diminishes the product’s rating.

Moreover, the burrito contains canola and sesame oils, which are considered harmful in our evaluation framework. While these oils are common in processed foods, they are not aligned with the cleaner food options our website advocates for. Additionally, the inclusion of corn starch as a thickener is another factor that lowers the product’s score, as it is seen as a potentially harmful additive.

These ingredients overshadow the fact that the product does use non-GMO ingredients, a positive aspect that is unfortunately not enough to significantly elevate the burrito’s score in our assessment. The product’s ingredient list reflects a need for reformulation to align with the cleaner, more health-conscious standards that consumers are increasingly demanding.

The Sweet Earth Foods The Curry Tiger Burrito has room for improvement to be considered a healthier choice. Removing harmful oils, eliminating added sugars, and avoiding additives like corn starch could transform this product into a cleaner option worthy of a higher green leaf rating. As it stands, the product does not uphold the values of our website, which promotes food choices that are not only nutritious but also free from unnecessary and potentially detrimental ingredients.
