Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Better Brownie scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Vanilla Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Cakes & Pastries, this is among the less processed of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
