Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Crunch Bar scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Artificial Colors (Red 3}, Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin, Mono And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Stabilizers & Gums (Carob Bean Gum, Cellulose Gum, Carrageenan, +1 more): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts, this product is more processed than about 38% of the 14,928 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
