Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

- Artificial Colors (Artificial Colors (Including Fd&C Red 40, Blue 1)): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Artificial And Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Candy, this product is more processed than about 32% of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
