Land O Frost

Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Land O Frost Black Forest Turkey Breast falls short in providing a cleaner food option for health-conscious consumers. This pre-packaged deli meat is not organic and fails to use non-GMO ingredients, which forms the basis of its low rating on our scale. The inclusion of added sugars, along with potentially harmful and known harmful additives, further detracts from its suitability as a clean food choice.

The product is composed of turkey breast and white turkey, combined with water and salt. However, the presence of potato starch and sugar raises concerns about unnecessary carbohydrate and sugar content. The product also contains a range of other ingredients, such as flavorings and carrageenan, which are considered detrimental by our standards. Carrageenan, derived from seaweed, has been the subject of debate due to its potential inflammatory properties and is a significant factor in the product’s low score.

Additionally, the use of vinegar and cultured celery juice powder, often employed as natural preservatives, does not offset the product’s overall negative attributes. Cherry powder, while it may offer some natural coloring, does not contribute positively to the product’s nutritional profile.

The Land O Frost Black Forest Turkey Breast is a product that does not align with the values of those seeking out cleaner, more natural food options. Without the certification of being organic and the assurance of non-GMO ingredients, it stands as a less desirable choice for those aiming to avoid additives and prioritize health. The presence of sugars and controversial additives like carrageenan solidifies its position at the lower end of our rating scale. Consumers are advised to consider these factors carefully and explore alternative products that better meet the criteria for clean eating.
