Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Pretzel Sticks scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides, Datem): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
Within Popcorn & Pretzels, this product is more processed than about 79% of the 4,573 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
