Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch (Corn)): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Artificial Colors (Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Other Additives (Confectioner'S Glaze, Carnauba Wax): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Candy, this product is more processed than about 32% of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
