Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Cheesy Nacho Flavored Crunchy Curls scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 5 Lake, Yellow 6 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate, Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Whey Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Plant Proteins (Hydrolyzed Soy Protein): Isolated proteins require extensive industrial processing.
- Emulsifiers (Mono And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Other Snacks, this product is more processed than about 65% of the 7,439 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
