Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Crema Mexicana scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Emulsifiers (Mono & Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum, Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Cream & Butter, this product is more processed than about 69% of the 3,591 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
