Sold as 'All-Natural' but loaded with high fructose corn syrup and three separate sweeteners. The label says wholesome; the ingredients say candy with a tang.

Why this verdict

Marketed 'All-Natural' while containing high fructose corn syrup
Three separate added sweeteners: sugar, HFCS, and corn syrup
Sweeteners outrank most real ingredients on the list
HFCS is a refined industrial syrup, the opposite of 'natural'

Ingredients (10)

vinegar (safe) — Standard acidifier for tang and preservation.
Water (safe) — Inert; just adjusts texture.
TOMATO CONCENTRATE (safe) — Real tomato, a legitimate whole-food base ingredient.
Tomato paste (safe) — Concentrated tomato; lycopene and flavor with no downside.
Sugar (concerning) — Added refined sugar, listed high - spikes blood sugar with no nutrition.
apples (safe) — Real fruit, adds natural sweetness and body.
Salt (moderate) — Added sodium for flavour.
High Fructose Corn Syrup (concerning) — Industrially processed sweetener linked to fatty liver and metabolic strain when consumed regularly; flatly contradicts the 'all natural' positioning.
Corn Syrup (concerning) — Refined glucose syrup added purely for sweetness and body; spikes blood sugar with zero nutrition.
Red Pepper and Spices (safe) — The heat and flavor; harmless seasonings.
