Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Jeni’s Ice Cream Bombastix Sundae Cone falls short of the cleaner food options we advocate for on our website. This product is not organic, and it fails to use non-GMO ingredients. The presence of added sugars, including cane sugar and tapioca syrup, contributes to its low rating. Furthermore, the inclusion of potentially harmful additives like natural flavors, enriched flour, and soy lecithin, as well as harmful oils such as soybean oil and palm kernel oil, warrant significant concern.
The ingredient list features milk, cream, and fair trade vanilla extract, which are less contentious. However, the chocolate waffle cone pieces contain a fudge coating with palm kernel oil and enriched flour, both of which are flagged for their potential negative health implications. The bittersweet chocolate sauce, though it includes real cream and butter, also contains cane invert sugar, adding to the product’s sugar content.
Jeni’s Ice Cream Bombastix Sundae Cone also incorporates nonfat milk, sea salt, natural flavor, vanilla bean specks, and Tahitian vanilla extract. Despite these seemingly innocuous ingredients, the overall composition of this ice cream product raises red flags due to its non-organic status, GMO content, and the variety of added sugars and undesirable additives.
The product’s low score reflects our commitment to healthier food alternatives and indicates that it does not align with our standards for clean eating. Shoppers seeking healthier frozen dessert options should consider alternatives that prioritize organic ingredients, avoid GMOs, and minimize the use of added sugars and harmful additives. While Jeni’s Ice Cream Bombastix Sundae Cone may appeal to those not concerned with these attributes, it does not meet the criteria for a cleaner, healthier food product that our website aims to endorse.
