Ingredient Score:

Ken’s Table Side Caesar Dressing receives a rating of 1 out of 5 green leaves on our scale, indicating a product that falls short of our criteria for cleaner food options. The dressing is not organic, and it does not use non-GMO ingredients. Its formula includes added sugars, such as citric acid and fructose, as well as high fructose corn syrup, contributing to its low score.

Furthermore, the dressing contains several potentially harmful additives. These include xanthan gum, potassium sorbate, calcium disodium EDTA, and caramel color. More concerning is the presence of known harmful additives like sodium benzoate, which further reduces the product’s rating. Soybean oil, listed as a harmful oil in our evaluation, is also a major ingredient in this product.

The product’s composition reflects a reliance on ingredients that do not align with our standards for health and transparency. It includes preservatives and flavor enhancers, such as disodium inosinate and disodium guanylate, that are often used to prolong shelf life and enhance taste but do not contribute to nutritional value.

In assessing the Ken’s Table Side Caesar Dressing, we find that it lacks the qualities of a clean and healthy food option. Its heavy reliance on additives, non-organic ingredients, GMOs, and high fructose corn syrup lead to its low rating on our scale. Consumers seeking healthier alternatives would be advised to consider other products that prioritize organic ingredients, avoid GMOs, and eliminate harmful additives and high fructose corn syrup from their recipes. Our assessment is driven by a commitment to guiding consumers toward choices that support their well-being in a market saturated with less health-conscious options.
