Summary

The Traditional Garlic Breadsticks are made with enriched wheat flour, which is a refined ingredient that lacks the nutritional benefits of whole grains. The product is processed, which limits its score potential. While it does not contain harmful additives like artificial colors or high-fructose corn syrup, the use of refined flour and added sugars like dextrose contribute to a moderate level of processing and reduce its overall healthiness.
