Pringles

Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Pringles Minecraft® Suspicious Stew Crisps offer a limited appeal for those seeking cleaner food options. This product fails to meet key health-focused criteria as outlined by our rigorous standards.

The crisps are not organic, which is a foundational expectation for cleaner food products. They also contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs), further distancing them from the desired organic profile. Added sugars present in the form of sugar and citric acid contribute negatively to the product’s rating. Dextrose, another form of added sugar, is deemed more harmful due to its processed nature and its prevalence in unhealthy food items.

The inclusion of potentially harmful additives such as natural and artificial flavors, mono- and diglycerides, and known harmful additives like artificial flavors, maltodextrin, and monosodium glutamate (MSG) significantly reduce the product’s standing. These ingredients are often associated with health concerns and are not aligned with a clean eating philosophy.

Furthermore, the crisps contain vegetable oil, which is considered a harmful oil due to its processing and potential health impacts. The labeling of ‘artificial flavor’ on the packaging also suggests the presence of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), an ingredient linked with various health issues and heavily penalized in our rating system.

The Pringles Minecraft® Suspicious Stew Crisps are placed at the bottom of our scale, reflecting a product that falls short of providing a health-conscious alternative in the snack market. Consumers seeking options that align with a cleaner diet are advised to look elsewhere, as this product does not support a wholesome lifestyle. The ingredients and non-organic nature of the crisps are clear indicators of its low rating and our recommendation to avoid it in favor of healthier choices.
