Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Halloween Lovers Candy Assortment scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids, High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavor, Vanillin (Artificial Flavor)): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 5 Lake, Blue 1 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Processed Fruit Products (Of: Chocolate, Of: Cocoa Processed With Alkali, Chocolate): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Emulsifiers (Lecithin (Soy)): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Candy, this product is more processed than about 32% 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.
