Ingredient Analysis
The mix is built from walnuts, pumpkin seeds, and almonds, but the dried cranberries and mango are sweetened with added sugar and processed with oils. These sweetened fruit components shift the formulation from a simple whole-food mix to a more processed convenience snack.
Ingredients
Dried Cranberries (cranberries, sugar, sunflower oil), Dried Mango (mango, sugar, citric acid), Roasted Almonds (almonds, expeller pressed high oleic sunflower oil), Walnuts, Pumpkin Seeds
