Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Cherries 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 (Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
Within Baking Supplies, this product is more processed than about 55% of the 5,060 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
