Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Awarded a 1/5 green leaf rating, the Stoufer’s Deluxe French Bread Pizza is not recommended for those seeking cleaner food options. This Frozen Foods falls short of healthier standards due to its composition of non-organic, GMO ingredients, added sugars, and harmful additives.
The product is not organic, contributing to its lower rating. It also includes genetically modified ingredients, which some consumers opt to avoid in pursuit of a cleaner diet. The presence of added sugars such as sugar and citric acid detracts from the product’s nutritional profile, while dextrose—a form of sugar that is considered more harmful—further diminishes its healthfulness.
The ingredient list reveals several potentially harmful additives, including natural flavor, flavor, diglycerides, enriched wheat flour, BHT, and modified food starch. These components often raise concerns for consumers looking for uncomplicated, whole food ingredients. More concerning are the known harmful additives such as sodium nitrite and BHA, both of which have been linked to negative health effects and are best avoided in a clean diet.
Additionally, the product contains soybean oil, which is considered a harmful oil due to its high omega-6 fatty acid content and potential for containing trans fats. The inclusion of palm oil is also problematic, as it is not only environmentally unsustainable but can also be detrimental to health when consumed in large amounts.
The Stoufer’s Deluxe French Bread Pizza, due to its array of non-organic, GMO ingredients, added sugars, and harmful additives, receives the lowest possible score on our green leaf rating scale. As a provider of cleaner food options, we advise consumers to steer clear of this product in favor of offerings that boast a more wholesome, transparent, and health-conscious ingredient list.
