Siggis

Rated at 3 out of 5 green leaves, the Siggis Keto Krunch offers a middle-ground option for those seeking cleaner food products. This snack is not certified organic and includes non-GMO ingredients, factors which detract from its overall healthfulness. Moreover, the presence of added sweeteners such as Stevia and Erythritol, while commonly used in ‘healthier’ alternatives to sugar, still prompt caution due to their classification as added sugars.

The product features a range of ingredients across its maple flavored yogurt, vanilla yogurt, and granola components. The yogurts are made with cultured pasteurized skim milk, cream, milk protein concentrate, native corn starch, and fruit pectin, with natural flavors and sea salt for taste. The granola combines seeds, nuts, and natural sweeteners, with butter and spices for additional flavor.

Notably, the use of ‘natural flavor’ in both the yogurt and granola raises some concerns. While ‘natural flavor’ is a common ingredient in many food products, it is often scrutinized for its lack of transparency, potentially encompassing a variety of undisclosed chemical components. However, the product does benefit from the inclusion of whole food ingredients such as sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, coconut, almonds, and pecans, which contribute to its nutrient profile.

The Siggis Keto Krunch positions itself as a compromise in the pursuit of cleaner eating. While it avoids the pitfalls of highly processed foods and offers a selection of whole food ingredients, its non-organic status and the addition of sweeteners and flavors prevent it from achieving a top rating. Consumers seeking a moderate option may find this product acceptable, but those aiming for the pinnacle of clean eating will likely continue their search for products that fully align with their criteria.
