Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Candy Chips 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.
- Artificial Colors (Artificial. Colors: (Red 3, Red 40, Red 40 Lake, Blue 1, Blue 1 Lake, Blue 2, Blue 2 Lake, Yellow 5, Yellow 5 Lake, Yellow 6, Yellow 6 Lake, Titanium Dioxide)): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
Within Baking Supplies, this product is more processed than about 55% of the 5,060 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
