Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Cherry Frosted Sugar Cookies scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Emulsifiers (Polysorbate 60, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Carrageenan, Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Cookies & Crackers, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 18,630 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
