Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Chews, Watermelon scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Fractionated Coconut Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Pectin): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Carnauba Wax): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Snack & Energy Bars, this product is more processed than about 23% of the 8,001 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
