Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Gingerbread House Decorating Kit 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.
- Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Chemical Preservatives (Preservative - Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40 Lake, Red 40, Blue 1, Blue 2, Blue 1 Lake, Blue 2 Lake, Yellow 5 Lake, Yellow 6 Lake, Yellow 5, Yellow 6): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides, Polysorbate 60, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Candy, this product is more processed than about 32% of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
