Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Artificial Flavors (Vanilla Extract And Artificial Vanilla Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gel, Cellulose Gum, Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Emulsifiers (Mono & Diglycerides, Polysorbate 80, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts, this product is more processed than about 38% of the 14,928 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
