Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

In our analysis, Cocoa Loco Chewy Bars scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Emulsifiers (Vegetable Glycerin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Processed Fruit Products (Natural Cocoa Powder): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavors, Vanilla Extract): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum, Gum Arabic): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

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.
