Real strawberries and a short, clean ingredient list, but it's roughly two-thirds sugar by weight. A genuinely simple preserve that's still basically fruit-flavored sugar.

Why this verdict

• Roughly 65% sugar by weight, about 3 tsp per serving
• Organic sugar is a co-dominant ingredient alongside the fruit
• Short, recognizable ingredient list with no artificial additives
• Made with real organic strawberries, not just concentrate

Ingredients (5)

• Organic Strawberries (safe) — Real fruit, the lead ingredient. Brings actual flavor, fiber, and some vitamin C.
• Organic Sugar (moderate) — Added sugar, present in large amounts. Organic or not, your body treats it the same and this jar is roughly two-thirds sugar.
• Pectin (safe) — Natural fruit-derived gelling fiber; harmless and helps set the spread.
