Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, El Charro, Coconut Candy scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Bht): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Sugar Alcohols (Sorbitol): Modified sweeteners common in diet UPF products.
Within Dried Fruit & Fruit Snacks, this product is more processed than about 98% of the 7,520 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
