About this product
This product's wellbeing score is 39%, which sits below the neutral 50% mark and indicates a less favorable wellbeing profile for a food item, while its safety score of 90% suggests a relatively low risk of immediate safety issues. Its Nutri-Grade of D further points to a less favorable overall nutritional composition.
Sesame seeds are the sole ingredient and form the product's nutritional base, contributing plant-based fats, protein, and minerals that give tahini its rich texture and make it a versatile food for direct consumption.
The same sesame seeds also carry the main concerns: sesame allergy is a high-risk issue for sensitive individuals, ethylene oxide (EtO) contamination is a high concern because the compound is sometimes used as a fumigant in sesame supply chains, and Salmonella risk is rated medium, which matters since tahini is often eaten without cooking.
Overall, this is a simple single-ingredient food with a strong safety record, but its below-neutral wellbeing score and the allergy, contamination, and Salmonella concerns mean it is best selected with those factors in mind.
