Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup. Contains 2% Or Less Of Each Of The Following: Salt): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Chemical Preservatives (Calcium Propionate And Potassium Sorbate (Mold Inhibitors)): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
Other Additives (Dough Conditioners (Protease, Ascorbic Acid, Mono- Diglycerides)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.

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.
