Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Holiday Shortbread scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 5, Red 3, Blue 1, +2 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Vanilla Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Confectioner'S Glaze, Carnauba Wax): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Baking Mixes, this product is more processed than about 55% of the 5,176 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
