Rating: We Avoid

Ingredient Score:

Rated at 1 out of 5 green leaves, the Chick-fil-A Hash Brown Scramble Bowl with Nuggets is a product that our review process identifies as one with significant room for improvement regarding its healthfulness. This dish is not organic and includes genetically modified organisms (GMOs), which immediately lowers its standing according to our criteria. The presence of added sugars, such as sugar and citric acid, further detracts from its score. The inclusion of dextrose, a form of sugar that we classify as more harmful, results in additional deductions.

The bowl contains several additives like natural flavors, flavor, soy lecithin, and xanthan gum, which we consider potentially harmful. Potassium sorbate, also found in the product, is deemed a less desirable preservative. More concerning are ingredients like sodium benzoate and monosodium glutamate, recognized as known harmful additives that lead to a greater loss of points.

Furthermore, the use of various oils in this product—peanut oil, canola, soybean oil, vegetable oil, palm kernel oil, and palm oil—contributes to the low rating due to their potential health implications. These oils are not favored in cleaner eating options, as they may contain harmful trans fats or be highly processed.

This product, therefore, receives the lowest possible score on our scale. Its composition reflects a collection of ingredients that do not align with the goal of offering cleaner, healthier food choices. The Hash Brown Scramble Bowl with Nuggets, based on this assessment, is a food option consumers may consider avoiding if they are seeking out meals that better support a wholesome diet and lifestyle.
