Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, The Following: Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Arabic, Guar Gum, Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Emulsifiers (Mono And Diglycerides, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts, this product is more processed than about 38% of the 14,928 products we've analyzed.

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