Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Croissant Ham & Cheese Sandwiches scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Chemical Preservatives (Calcium Propionate & Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Nitrite): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Modified Starches (Of: Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Smoke Flavoring Added: Cured With Water, Smoke Flavoring): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Frozen Breakfast, this product is more processed than about 39% of the 1,791 products we've analyzed.
