Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, White Bread scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Soybean Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Other Additives (Monoglycerides): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Emulsifiers (Datem): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Bread, this product is more processed than about 48% of the 11,494 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
