Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Assorted Dark Chocolates scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Processed Fruit Products (Unsweetened Chocolate Processed With Alkali, Unsweetened Chocolate, Breakfast Cocoa): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Sugar Alcohols (Sorbitol, Xylitol): Modified sweeteners common in diet UPF products.
- Emulsifiers (Glycerin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Chocolate, this product is more processed than about 67% of the 9,618 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
