Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Fruit Plus, Chewy Candy scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Stabilizers & Gums (Food Conditioners [Gelatine (Halal), Gum Arabic E414, Citric Acid E330]): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Food Flavoring (Strawberry Flavor)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
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.
