Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, 1.62oz Funyuns Hot scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Red 40 Lake, Yellow 6 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Sodium Diacetate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Arabic): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Other Snacks, this product is more processed than about 65% of the 7,439 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
