Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
The Blue Bunny Load’d Cones® Cookie Dough receives a rating of 1/5 green leaves, reflecting its position as a product to be avoided for those seeking cleaner food options. This ice cream cone is not organic and contains genetically modified ingredients. It is heavy in added sugars, including molasses, brown sugar, and regular sugar, further compounded by the presence of corn syrup, which is a concerning sweetener due to its potential health implications.
The product also includes a variety of additives that raise red flags. These include natural and artificial flavors, mono and diglycerides, soy lecithin, xanthan gum, and caramel color. Each of these has been associated with potential health concerns and detracts from the product’s overall quality. Particularly troubling are the artificial flavors and caramel color, which are known for their negative health impacts. Carrageenan is another controversial ingredient found in this product, which some studies have linked to digestive issues and inflammation.
In addition to the sweeteners and additives, the Blue Bunny Load’d Cones® Cookie Dough is made with oils that are less than ideal for health. Peanut oil, canola oil, and soybean oil are included in the recipe, which may not align with the preferences of those seeking cleaner and less processed food options.
Given the combination of non-organic ingredients, GMOs, multiple types of added sugars, potentially harmful additives, and oils of dubious quality, this product does not meet the criteria for clean eating. The score of 1/5 green leaves is a clear indicator of its standing within a market that increasingly values health and transparency in food production. Those who prioritize the consumption of cleaner, more natural products would be well advised to steer clear of the Blue Bunny Load’d Cones® Cookie Dough and seek alternatives that better align with their dietary standards.
