Rating:     We Avoid

Ingredient Score:

This product receives a rating of 1/5 green leaves, indicating it is one of the least recommended options for those seeking cleaner food choices. The Eggo Kellogg’s® Eggo® Froot Loops® Waffles are not organic and contain genetically modified (GMO) ingredients, which leads to an immediate reduction in its green leaf score. The presence of added sugars further detracts from its clean eating suitability.

The waffles include a variety of potentially harmful additives such as natural flavors and enriched flour. Soy lecithin and pyridoxine hydrochloride are also present, which are viewed negatively under the website’s scoring criteria. Moreover, the product contains oils considered harmful, including canola, vegetable, and palm oils. These ingredients are typically processed and may not align with a clean eating philosophy.

In terms of nutritional enrichment, the waffles are fortified with vitamins and minerals such as niacin, reduced iron, vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, B12, and folic acid. However, the fortification does not compensate for the product’s use of undesirable ingredients from a clean eating perspective.

Consumers are advised to avoid this product based on the comprehensive assessment of its ingredients and the values of the reviewing website. The Eggo Kellogg’s® Eggo® Froot Loops® Waffles earn the lowest possible score due to their content of non-organic, GMO, and added sugar ingredients, along with the inclusion of potentially harmful additives and oils. The website’s aim is to guide consumers toward healthier, cleaner food options, and this product does not meet the standards set forth for achieving a higher green leaf rating.
