Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Chocolate Candy, Apple scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Less Than 1% - Corn Syrup, Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40, Blue 2, Blue 1, Yellow 6, Yellow 5, Red 40 Lake, Blue 2 Lake, Blue 1 Lake, Yellow 6 Lake, Yellow 5 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Artificial And Natural Flavors): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Acacia): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Candy, this product is more processed than about 32% of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
