Flapjack

Why Does This Score Highly Processed?

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

• Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa (Processed With Alkali)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
• Processed Dairy Ingredients (Wheat Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Concentrate, Milk Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Baking Mixes, this product is more processed than about 21% of the 5,176 products we've analyzed.

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