Rating:     Not Clean

Ingredient Score:

Rated at 2 out of 5 green leaves, the Hershey’s Hollow Milk Chocolate Bunny does not meet the criteria for a cleaner food option. This product is not organic, and it does not use non-GMO ingredients. The inclusion of added sugars and potentially harmful additives detracts from its overall healthfulness.

The ingredients list for this chocolate bunny contains several elements that raise concerns. It is not organic, a quality that is often sought after by health-conscious consumers looking to avoid the pesticides and synthetic fertilizers used in conventional farming. The absence of non-GMO certification means that the product may contain genetically modified organisms, which some people prefer to avoid due to environmental and health considerations.

Sugar is the first ingredient, indicating that this confection is high in added sugars, which have been linked to numerous health issues when consumed in excess. Furthermore, the product contains natural flavor and lecithin (soy), which are considered potentially harmful additives. Natural flavors are often criticized for their ambiguous origins and potential to contain a myriad of undisclosed chemical components. Lecithin, derived from soy, is an emulsifier that, while generally recognized as safe, is often sourced from genetically modified crops, adding to the GMO content of the product.

The Hershey’s Hollow Milk Chocolate Bunny falls short of the standards for clean eating. Its reliance on non-organic ingredients, GMOs, added sugars, and questionable additives means that it does not align with the values of consumers seeking healthier, more natural food options. The product could benefit from a reformulation that focuses on organic, non-GMO ingredients and the elimination of additives to improve its standing as a cleaner choice in the market.
