Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Fruit Pie scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Modified Fats (Palm Oil & Fractionated Palm Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 5, Yellow 6): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Emulsifiers (Glycerine, Mono- & Diglycerides, Sorbitan Monostearate): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum, Agar-Agar): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
