Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Sea Salt Caramel scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Emulsifiers (Mono And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Pectin, Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum, +1 more): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

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.
