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.

Choosing hemp hearts & seeds: what to check before you buy
Choose hulled hemp hearts when you want the soft inner seed, and check whether a product instead contains whole seeds or a seasoned blend. Hemp protein powder and hemp oil are different forms with different uses.
Compare price per ounce and read the full list for added salt or seasonings. Check sourcing and storage details on the exact bag rather than using the hemp name alone to infer its recipe or processing.
What the labels on this shelf show
We track 28 products from 24 brands on the hemp hearts & seeds shelf. 24 have a complete, current ingredient label on record (86%), which is what lets us score them. The other 4 stay unscored until the maker publishes a full label; a missing label is “not yet”, never a pass.
Of the 24 scored labels, 24 (100%) list none of the nine additive groups we check, so on additives alone the whole scored shelf is clear. 12 scored products carry a verified organic claim, which adds points. Scores here run from 71 to 100, and the typical label lists 1 ingredients.
What to compare
- Hulled or whole
- Choose soft hearts or whole seeds according to your intended use.
- Plain or seasoned
- Read added salt, seasonings and other ingredients.
- Amount and storage
- Compare unit price and directions on the exact bag.
- Product form
- Hemp protein powder and hemp oil are different formats from hemp hearts.

What to skip, and why
No scored label lists any of the nine groups, so there is no additive to rule out.
The 4 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.
