Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Apple Cinnamon Muffin Mix scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Shortening (Contains Soybean Oil And Cottonseed Oil)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Emulsifiers (Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Baking Mixes, this product is more processed than about 55% of the 5,176 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
