Ingredient Score:
Rating: (1/5 Green Leaves)
The Dunkin Donuts Coffee Roll earns the lowest possible rating on our green leaf scale, indicating a product with numerous concerns regarding its ingredients. It is not organic and contains genetically modified (GMO) ingredients, which are significant detractors in our evaluation process. Additionally, the coffee roll includes added sugars, such as sugar and citric acid, contributing to its low score.
Further examination reveals the presence of dextrose, a form of added sugar that carries a heavier penalty due to its potential impact on health. The product also contains a variety of additives like natural and artificial flavors, diglycerides, enriched wheat flour, soy lecithin, potassium sorbate, and xanthan, which we have identified as potentially harmful. Particularly concerning are the known harmful additives, including artificial flavor, carrageenan, and maltodextrin, which contribute to the product’s negative assessment.
The use of oils in the coffee roll raises additional red flags. Soybean oil and palm oil are present, which we have classified as harmful based on their processing methods and environmental implications. The mention of high fructose corn syrup, found within the artificial flavor component, further diminishes the product’s standing.
Our green leaf rating system is designed to guide consumers toward cleaner food options by highlighting products that meet rigorous health and environmental standards. The Dunkin Donuts Coffee Roll, with a score of 1 out of 5 green leaves, falls short of these standards. It contains a range of ingredients that are either not organic, GMO, or potentially harmful to health. As such, we advise consumers to consider alternative options that better align with a commitment to cleaner, healthier food choices.
