Kirkland Signature Organic Blue Agave — TREAT
Munch or Dump rates Kirkland Signature Organic Blue Agave by Kirkland Signature TREAT — score 50/90.
One organic ingredient, but do not mistake it for a health upgrade — agave nectar is around 85% fructose, higher than table sugar or corn syrup. The 'low glycemic' selling point comes precisely from that fructose, which your liver handles much like fat. Clean label, but treat it exactly like the sugar it is.
Why this verdict
- Single ingredient — organic blue agave nectar
- Roughly 85% fructose — more than table sugar or high-fructose corn syrup
- The 'low glycemic' halo comes from that heavy fructose load, which the liver processes like fat
- Minimally processed, but still a concentrated sweetener
Ingredients (1)
