Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Dunkin Donuts Marble Frosted Donut is a product that carries the lowest recommendation on our scale for cleaner food options. This donut is not organic and comprises genetically modified (GMO) ingredients, which significantly impacts its score. It is also laden with various added sugars, including sugar, citric acid, and fructose, alongside an even more concerning presence of dextrose and corn syrup. The ingredient list reveals a range of potentially harmful additives such as natural flavors, diglycerides, enriched wheat flour, soy lecithin, xanthan gum, and preservatives like potassium sorbate.
The use of known harmful additives such as artificial flavors, carrageenan, and maltodextrin further diminishes its standing. The inclusion of oils deemed harmful, specifically soybean oil and palm oil, exacerbates the product’s health implications. The presence of high fructose corn syrup, coupled with artificial flavors, is a critical factor in our assessment, as this ingredient is linked to numerous health concerns.
The Dunkin Donuts Marble Frosted Donut falls short of our standards for a cleaner diet due to its composition of various non-preferred ingredients. The choice of non-organic and GMO ingredients, along with a plethora of added sugars and harmful additives, positions this product at the lower end of our rating system. The use of oils and high fructose corn syrup further solidifies its place as a product to be avoided for those seeking healthier food options. As such, consumers looking for cleaner, healthier alternatives would be well-advised to consider other options in the market.
