Assortment Nuggets

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Assortment Nuggets scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Emulsifiers (Lecithin (Soy)): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
• Processed Fruit Products (Chocolate, Cocoa Processed With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Chocolate, this product is more processed than about 67% of the 9,618 products we've analyzed.
