Rating:     We Avoid

Ingredient Score:

Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Hershey’s White Crème with Almonds Candy Bar falls significantly short of the healthier food options advocated by our website. This product is not organic, contains GMOs, and features a range of ingredients that raise concerns regarding its nutritional profile.

The candy bar’s primary ingredient is sugar, contributing to the high caloric content typically associated with candy bars. Additionally, the presence of corn syrup solidifies its position as a food item with considerable amounts of added sugars, which are linked to various health issues when consumed excessively. The inclusion of multiple vegetable oils – palm oil, shea oil, sunflower oil, palm kernel oil, and safflower oil – is particularly troubling. These oils are often highly processed and may contain unhealthy fats.

Almonds and skim milk, which could be considered beneficial components due to their protein and calcium content, are overshadowed by the product’s overall composition. The additives such as lecithin, vanillin, and PGPR (an emulsifier) further contribute to the artificial nature of this candy bar.

The Hershey’s White Crème with Almonds Candy Bar is not aligned with the clean eating focus that our website promotes. For consumers seeking healthier options, this product does not meet the criteria that would warrant a recommendation. The ingredients list reveals a reliance on processed components rather than natural, wholesome foods. Therefore, for those looking to maintain a diet centered on clean and nutritious eating, this candy bar is best left on the shelf.
