Quick answer
Limit When Possible
Amy's vegan rice mac & cheeze is rated limit when possible overall, with a Longevity Score of 68 out of 100 and a Food Integrity Score of 68 out of 100. Simple organic rice pasta base with no added sugar, but refined rice pasta, seed-oil and sodium load keep it a moderate alignment. Strengths include organic rice pasta with short, recognizable ingredient list, no added sugar per serving, and pea protein and nutritional yeast add some protein, while main considerations include refined rice pasta with low fiber per serving, safflower and sunflower oils are prominent seed oils, and sodium is high for one serving.
