Ingredient Score:

Kit Kats Chunky Peanut Butter earns a rating of 1/5 green leaves on our website, indicating the lowest recommendation for cleaner food options. This product is not organic and contains genetically modified (GMO) ingredients, which has impacted its score negatively. Additionally, the presence of added sugars, specifically listed as ‘Sugar’ in the ingredients, further detracts from its healthfulness.

The product’s ingredients list reveals several concerns. It includes Palm Fat, a type of oil that we classify as harmful due to environmental and health considerations. Moreover, the product contains ‘Natural Flavourings,’ a term that encompasses a wide range of additives, which we have identified as potentially harmful. These ingredients contribute to the low score the product receives on our scale.

Kit Kats Chunky Peanut Butter is also non-organic, which is a critical factor for our scoring system. Products that are not certified organic are penalized, as this certification is a key indicator of a cleaner, more natural product. The absence of non-GMO ingredients is another significant factor, as many consumers prefer foods that have not been genetically modified.

The product’s ingredient list includes Skimmed Milk Powder, Cocoa Butter, Ground Roasted Peanuts, Wheat Flour, Cocoa Mass, Butterfat, Lactose and Proteins from Whey, Whey Powder, Peanut Flour, Sunflower Lecithin, Salt, and Sodium Bicarbonate. These ingredients, while common in many confectionery items, do not align with the cleaner food options we aim to promote.

Our evaluation method is meticulous, and we prioritize transparency. Kit Kats Chunky Peanut Butter’s low score reflects our commitment to guiding consumers towards healthier, more sustainable food choices. By providing this information, we aim to empower consumers to make informed decisions that align with their values and health goals.
