Health Integrity Analysis
Is Vegan Jerky - Original truly good for you, or is it just clever marketing? We analyzed the nutritional density, ingredient safety, and processing levels using the CakeID Algorithm. With a calculated health score of 60/100, here is the deep dive into what you are actually eating.
⚠️ Moderate Caution
While free from the most dangerous additives, we detected Canola Oil. A highly processed industrial oil extracted using hexane solvents, bleached, and deodorized. High in Omega-6s which can promote inflammation if not balanced with Omega-3s. It is generally safe in small amounts but worth noting for sensitive diets.
The Sugar Reality Check
This product contains 34g of sugar per 100g. To put that into perspective, that's equivalent to eating roughly 9 sugar cubes directly. While it might taste great, such a high glycemic load can lead to rapid insulin spikes followed by energy crashes.
Final Verdict
Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Vegan Jerky - Original achieves a CakeID Score of 60/100.
