Mozzarella Sticks, 8 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd find these in the frozen aisle as a quick heat-and-serve snack for game nights, movie nights, or an easy after-school treat, promising a crispy exterior and gooey cheese center. The product reads indulgent and nostalgic—convenient comfort food more than a homemade option. The breading formulation (xanthan gum, chemical leaveners, refined starches and added oils) and ready-to-heat format are clues to industrial processing and textural additives typical of ultra-processed foods.

Well, that depends on your definition of healthy! These mozzarella sticks pack a punch with 32 grams of protein per serving, which is great if you're looking for a protein boost. However, they do come in at 580 calories with a decent amount of sodium, so they're more of an occasional treat than an everyday snack.
