Bulletproof

The Bulletproof Salted Caramel has earned a rating of 3 out of 5 green leaves on our cleaner food options scale. This product is a middle-of-the-road choice for those seeking healthier snacks. It is not certified organic and does not exclusively use non-GMO ingredients, which has impacted its rating. Additionally, the inclusion of sweeteners like stevia and erythritol, along with the presence of additives labeled as natural flavors, detracts from its overall score.

The ingredient list features pea protein crisps, almond butter, and roasted almonds as primary components, which contribute to its protein content. Inulin and prebiotic tapioca fiber are included to offer dietary fiber benefits. However, the product also contains glycerin, a humectant that some may find less desirable in clean food products.

While the Bulletproof Salted Caramel does incorporate health-conscious elements such as MCT oil, derived from highly refined coconut oil, and monk fruit extract, a natural sweetener, these do not fully offset the deductions made for the aforementioned reasons. The use of less than 2% of certain ingredients like sunflower lecithin and mixed tocopherols (vitamin E) is noted for their functional roles in the product’s composition.

The product’s green leaf rating reflects its position as an option that balances health-conscious ingredients with some elements that may not align with the strictest clean eating principles. Its score acknowledges the effort to provide a healthier snack alternative while also recognizing areas where improvement is possible. The Bulletproof Salted Caramel is a snack that provides some benefits but also leaves room for further refinement in its pursuit of clean eating standards.
