Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Sugar Cookies 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.
Artificial Colors (Yellow Lake #5, Yellow 5, Yellow Lake #6, +3 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
Natural Flavors (Vanilla): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Cookies & Crackers, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 18,630 products we've analyzed.

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