• Added organic sugar is the #2 ingredient, on top of the apples' natural sugars
• Sugar is the only real knock — everything else is clean
• Real organic apples and cinnamon, no artificial additives

Ingredients (5)

• Organic Apples (safe) — Whole fruit base — fiber, vitamin C, polyphenols. The good part of the jar.
