Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

• Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup, Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
• Artificial Flavors (Vanillin (An Artificial Flavor)): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
• Processed Fruit Products (Chocolate Buttons): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
• Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin Added As An Emulsifier): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
