The clean score reads only the ingredient label. Up to 60 points come from the 9 additive groups we check: each group not on the label earns its share, and a group named only in a "may contain" note earns half. Up to 25 points come from an organic claim we have confirmed. Points that do not apply to this kind of food are left out and the rest is scaled to 100.

Our research notes
What to know before you choose these jam & fruit spreads
The recorded ingredient label lists 13 ingredients, led by water, strawberries and maltodextrin. Worth noting: it lists added sweeteners (maltodextrin), natural flavors, artificial dyes, artificial sweeteners and artificial preservatives. The maker describes it as sugar free; these are the maker’s statements, so look for the certifier’s seal on the package. For these jam & fruit spreads, the comparison that matters most is fruit and texture: check the fruit blend and whether you want jelly, pieces or a smooth spread.
