Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Candy Chews scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Coconut Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40, Red 40 Lake, Blue 1, +3 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Candy, this product is more processed than about 32% of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
