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

Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Reese’s Gold Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Bunny is a product that our review finds falls significantly short of the cleaner food options we advocate for. The absence of organic ingredients and the use of GMOs are the initial factors contributing to its low score.
The ingredient list reveals the presence of several added sugars, including sugar and dextrose. These contribute to the product’s high caloric content without providing nutritional value. The presence of harmful additives is also concerning, with TBHQ standing out as a synthetic preservative that has been linked to negative health effects.
Moreover, the use of various forms of vegetable oils, specifically palm and palm kernel oils, raises additional health and environmental concerns. These oils are not only high in saturated fats but also contribute to deforestation and habitat degradation when sourced irresponsibly.
While the product may appeal to those seeking a traditional chocolate and peanut butter treat, from a health perspective, it does not align with the criteria for cleaner, healthier food choices. The inclusion of ingredients that have been associated with potential health risks and environmental issues is a decisive factor in our assessment.
The Reese’s Gold Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Bunny’s low green leaf rating reflects its position at the bottom of our recommended options. Consumers seeking healthier alternatives are advised to consider other products that prioritize organic, non-GMO ingredients, and avoid harmful additives and oils. Our evaluation aims to guide consumers towards choices that support not only personal health but also environmental sustainability.
