Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Iced Tea, Lemon scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Natural Flavors (Black Tea): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Drink Mixes, this product is more processed than about 30% of the 4,985 products we've analyzed.
