Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Cocoa-Dusted Almonds scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Nuts & Seeds, this product is more processed than about 84% of the 20,883 products we've analyzed.
