Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Fruit Pastilles scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Modified Starches (Modified Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Arabic): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Other Additives (Acids (Malic Acid, Citric Acid, Lactic Acid)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Candy, this is among the less processed of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
