Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Classic Bread Crumbs scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Other Additives (Dough Conditioners (Mono-And Diglycerides, Sodium And/Or Calcium Stearoyl Lactylate, Soy Lecithin, Calcium Carbonate)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Baking Mixes, this product is more processed than about 55% of the 5,176 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
