- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Sodium Ascorbate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
Within Other Snacks, this product is more processed than about 65% of the 7,439 products we've analyzed.
