Too sweet. Tastes more like apple juice. One of the ingredients is organic apple juice concentrate, making this applesauce too sweet. Tastes more like apple juice than applesauce. What is “organic natural flavor” as an ingredient? I prefer unsweetened applesauce made with just apples. (Mott’s uses apples, water and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) & only 50 calories for 3.9 oz vs. 80 calories for TJ’s 4 oz. Less sugar, too – 11 g sugar vs 16 g).

It’s extremely sweet. It says no added sugar but the ingredients list natural flavoring. So I’m not sure I believe the no sugar label. Food manufacturers are required to list natural flavors on ingredient labels, but they are not required to specify the exact sources or components of these flavors,” Goodson says. “Instead, they can use the generic term ‘natural flavor’ to maintain the proprietary nature of their recipes. Sneaky ways to alter our food?
