Ingredient Score:

Skittles Sour Gummies receive a 1/5 green leaf rating on our scale for cleaner food options. This product is not organic and contains GMO ingredients, which immediately lowers its standing on our scale. The presence of added sugars, including sugar and citric acid, further detracts from its score. The inclusion of corn syrup, a more harmful added sugar, significantly impacts the product’s rating negatively.

Moreover, Skittles Sour Gummies contain a range of potentially harmful additives. The list includes natural and artificial flavors, colors such as Yellow 6, Red 40, and the use of modified corn starch. These ingredients contribute to the product’s low score. Furthermore, known harmful additives such as artificial flavors, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 1, and Red 40 are present in the gummies, which are widely recognized as undesirable in cleaner food options.

The product also contains high fructose corn syrup, listed under artificial flavors, which is a heavily criticized ingredient due to its association with various health issues. This ingredient alone leads to a significant deduction in the product’s score.

The evaluation of Skittles Sour Gummies highlights the product’s reliance on ingredients that do not align with a cleaner diet. The use of non-organic and GMO ingredients, combined with a variety of added sugars and harmful additives, positions this product at the lowest end of our green leaf rating. Consumers seeking healthier alternatives are advised to steer clear of this product, as it fails to meet the criteria for a cleaner, more wholesome food option. The 1/5 green leaf rating serves as a clear indicator of the product’s standing in terms of healthfulness and quality within the crowded market of food choices.
