How the clean score works
No setup needed, and strict: a full 100 needs every additive group clear and a verified organic claim (animal foods also need a verified grass-fed or pasture-raised claim; wild seafood and salt, which have no USDA organic standard, are scored without the organic points, and plant-based milks, cheeses and proteins without the feeding claim). Points: the nine additive groups (seed oils, artificial dyes, MSG, artificial sweeteners, carrageenan, artificial preservatives, hydrogenated oils, corn syrups, banned-abroad additives) share 60 points equally — not found earns a group’s full share, “may contain” earns half, listed earns 0; a verified organic claim is worth 25; a verified grass-fed or pasture-raised claim is worth 15 and counts only for animal foods. No claim, or an expired or unverified claim, earns nothing, so products without those claims cannot reach 100. Unverified or expired ingredient labels receive no score. Equal scores are equal. Ties are ordered by brand. Unknown and stale evidence never passes “Only show matches.” Producer claims and prices do not affect this score. This is not a nutrition, allergy, or safety rating.

The full guide · Beverages
Choosing creamers: what to check before you buy
Choose dairy or a specific plant base, then compare unsweetened and flavored creamers within that style. Check the full oil blend and sweeteners; a flavor name or front-label claim does not describe the whole recipe.
Compare the amount you actually pour, since a labeled serving can be small. Check storage after opening and any milk or nut ingredients, including when a product is described as non-dairy.
What the labels on this shelf show
We track 90 products from 24 brands on the creamers shelf. 49 have a complete, current ingredient label on record (54%), which is what lets us score them. The other 41 stay unscored until the maker publishes a full label; a missing label is “not yet”, never a pass.
Of the 49 scored labels, 33 (67%) list none of the nine additive groups we check. The group that appears most is seed oils, listed on 11 labels, followed by carrageenan on 7. 2 scored products carry a verified organic claim, which adds points. Scores here run from 39 to 100, and the typical label lists 7 ingredients.
What to compare
- Base and oils
- Read the dairy or plant base and every oil in the recipe.
- Amount poured
- Compare sugars and other nutrition for the amount you use.
- Flavor recipe
- Review sweeteners, flavors and thickeners in the exact variant.
- Allergens and storage
- Check milk and nut ingredients and instructions after opening.

What to skip, and why
These scored products list at least one group on their current label. That is the clearest reason to pass if you are avoiding those ingredients.
- Kroger Coffee Creamer, Hazelnut lists seed oils, artificial sweeteners, carrageenan and corn syrups (39/100)
- Coffee mate The Original Coffee Creamer lists seed oils, carrageenan and corn syrups (47/100)
- Signature Select Hazelnut Flavored Coffee Creamer lists seed oils, artificial sweeteners and corn syrups (47/100)
The 41 products without a verified label are a separate “not yet”: we have no recorded ingredient list to check, so we cannot say they are clean or flagged.
Your preferences, explained
The clean score is strict and needs no setup: nine additive groups not found in a current ingredient statement, plus a verified organic claim (and a grass-fed or pasture-raised claim for animal foods), are needed for 100; a possible match earns half and a missing claim earns nothing. Missing or expired evidence stays unknown. It does not assess nutrition, allergies, contaminants, or safety.
