Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:

Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the ‘M&Ms Limited Edition M&M’S Milk Chocolate Candy Featuring Purple’ ranks lowest on our scale for cleaner food options. This rating reflects the product’s extensive use of ingredients that do not align with the principles of a health-conscious diet.
The candy is not organic, which detracts from its overall score. In addition, it includes genetically modified (GMO) components, further reducing its standing. A significant concern is the presence of added sugars, with sugar and corn syrup both contributing to its negative assessment. The product also contains a variety of color additives such as Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 1, Blue 2, and Red 40, which are known for their potential adverse health effects.
Moreover, the ingredient list features items like natural flavor and soy lecithin, along with other additives that are considered potentially harmful. These elements are often scrutinized for their necessity and impact on health, and their presence here diminishes the product’s suitability for those seeking cleaner food choices.
The cumulative presence of these non-organic, GMO, and additive-laden ingredients results in the product’s low rating. It has earned the minimal score due to its composition, which includes multiple factors that are at odds with the goal of providing cleaner, healthier food options. The ‘M&Ms Limited Edition M&M’S Milk Chocolate Candy Featuring Purple’ is advised against for consumers aiming to minimize their intake of processed sugars and artificial additives.
Consumers are encouraged to consider alternatives that prioritize health, such as products with fewer additives, no GMOs, and those that are organic. The product evaluated here does not meet these criteria and therefore receives the lowest possible endorsement for health-conscious individuals.
