How scoring works

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.

This product: 7 of 9 groups not on the label. No confirmed organic claim.

Worth noting: it lists added sweeteners (high fructose corn syrup and sugar), natural flavors, artificial dyes and corn syrups. For these fruit snacks & pouches, the comparison that matters most is format and fruit blend: compare pouches, dried bars and gummy-style snacks separately.
