Ingredient Score:

Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Blue Bunny Load’d Cones® Salted Caramel Pecan falls at the bottom of our cleaner food options. This product is not organic and contains genetically modified ingredients. It is laden with added sugars, including molasses, sugar, and fructose, as well as high fructose corn syrup, which is particularly concerning due to its association with various health issues.

The ingredient list reveals the presence of several potentially harmful additives such as natural flavors, diglycerides, soy lecithin, xanthan gum, and sodium citrate. More notably, it includes caramel color and carrageenan, both of which are identified as known harmful additives. These substances have been linked to negative health effects and are best avoided.

Furthermore, the product contains oils that are often considered harmful, including canola, soybean, and palm oil. These oils are processed and have raised health and environmental concerns. The inclusion of palm oil also raises questions about sustainable sourcing, as palm oil production is a significant driver of deforestation and habitat destruction.

Given the composition of the Blue Bunny Load’d Cones® Salted Caramel Pecan, those seeking healthier food alternatives are advised to steer clear of this product. Its high content of added sugars, genetically modified ingredients, and the array of potentially and known harmful additives make it a poor choice for consumers prioritizing their health and the environment. The product’s score reflects its position as a less desirable option in the market for cleaner, healthier food products.
