Ingredient Score:
The Chick-fil-A Chocolate Fudge Brownie earns a green leaf rating of 1/5 on our website, indicating a product that falls short of our clean eating standards. This low rating reflects the numerous concerns we have with the ingredients used in the brownie.
This product is not organic, which is a significant factor in its rating, as we prioritize organic ingredients for health and environmental reasons. The brownie also contains GMO ingredients, which many consumers prefer to avoid due to environmental and potential health concerns. Added sugars are present in the form of sugar and fudge chunks, contributing to the high caloric content and potentially negative health impacts associated with excessive sugar consumption.
Furthermore, the brownie includes several potentially harmful additives, such as natural flavor, flavor, monoglycerides, and soy lecithin. These additives often raise questions about their long-term health effects and are usually found in highly processed foods. The presence of harmful oils, specifically palm and vegetable oils, is another major concern. The production of palm oil is known for its environmental impact, including deforestation and habitat destruction, and these oils can also be high in unhealthy saturated fats.
The ingredient list reveals the use of bleached wheat flour, which is less nutritious than whole grain alternatives, and cocoa processed with alkali, which reduces the antioxidant content of the cocoa. Semi-sweet chocolate and fudge chunks add to the sugar content and are often processed with less nutritional consideration.
Given these factors, the Chick-fil-A Chocolate Fudge Brownie is not aligned with our mission to promote cleaner food options. The combination of non-organic ingredients, GMOs, added sugars, potentially harmful additives, and harmful oils lead us to advise against choosing this product for those seeking healthier, more environmentally friendly food choices. The brownie represents a type of food product that consumers looking for clean eating options should consider avoiding.
