Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, 3-Layer Gelatin scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
  • Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavors): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.

Within Puddings & Gelatin, this product is more processed than about 36% of the 1,991 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
